Dhammapada 100 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


8 - Sahassavaggo, Thousands
1 - Tambadathika Coraghataka Vatthu
Sahassamapi ce vaca, anatthapadasamhita;
ekam atthapadam seyyo, yam sutva upasammati.
100: Better than a thousand words that are senseless and unconnected with the realization of Nibbana, is a single word of sense, if on hearing it one is calmed.
