In language clarity is everything.

Future generation is the most important thing.

At seventy, I could follow the dictates of my own heart; for what I desired no longer overstepped the boundaries of right.

The mirror reflects all objects without being sullied

Let mourning stop when one's grief is fully expressed.

Love of goodness without love of learning degenerates into simple-mindedness. Love of knowledge without love of learning degenerates into utter lack of principle. Love of faithfulness without love of learning degenerates into injurious disregard of consequences. Love of uprightness without love of learning degenerates into harshness. Love of courage without love of learning degenerates into insubordination. Love of strong character without love of learning degenerates into mere recklessness.

He who needs only coarse food, water and drink, and as pillow his folded arms will find happiness without further search.
