wordplay - Mixed-up quotations



I was looking up some quotations the other day by a famous person. The following three quotations were all made by the same person, but somehow they got mixed up before I could read them.


Can you tell me what happened to them, what the quotations are, and who said them?


Quotation 1



The sis maize imp puller ill legion. They risen own eat fort dimples; known eat fork ump lick hated fill us if he. A rowin' bray, now roan art a sour temp pull. Duff ill us iffy ask eye and nest.



Quotation 2



Harp rhyme purr puss sin thus lie fist ooh hell paw thirds. Sand diff few can tell path emmett leased owned heard dumb.




Quotation 3



Weak enough fur robed hay imp ease sin theatre whorl dent ill owe he may cap ease withers elves.




Answer



1:



"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."



2:




"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them."



3:



"We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves."



These are all quotes from



the Dalai Lama.




and they've been modified



by taking phonetically similar words.
