loopable suttas & sutta passages: timeless reminders you never tire of hearing

What are your favorite loopable sutta passages, ones that give profound messages that you could recite over and over again out loud and/or in your mind, for hours at a time, and you never tire of hearing it because it's such a timely reminder of what you should be doing or concerned about right now? They are also great at suppressing and directly developing understanding of how hindrances/defilements arise.

Here are a few of mine:

1. STED right effort, the four aspects, such as in SN 45.8
2. AN 4.14 guarding the sense doors
3. SN 46.2 the first 3 hindrances
4. SN 22.29: one who delights [in each of the 5uk aggregates] delights in dukkha. one who delights in dukkha, is not freed from dukkha.
