A man must constantly exceed his level

The founder of any branch must be more ingenious than the common man. However, if his achievement is not carried on by disciples of the same ingenuity, then things will only become formalized and get stuck in a cul-de-sac; whereby breakthrough and progress will be almost impossible.

The mind is like a fertile garden in which anything that is planted, flowers or weeds, will grow.

In order to taste my cup of water you must first empty your cup.

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Defeat is not defeat unless accepted as a reality-in your own mind.

Dedication, absolute dedication, is what keeps one ahead!
