From a grain of sand in the Pearl comes.

A man living without conflicts, as if he never lives at all.

The true gentleman does not preach what he practices till he has practiced what he preaches.

The superior person gathers his weapons together in order to provide against the unforeseen.

We are so busy doing the urgent that we don't have time to do the important.

If a man remembers what is right at the sign of profit, is ready to lay down his life in the face of danger, and does not forget sentiments he has repeated all his life when he has been in straitened circumstances for a long time, he may be said to be a complete man.

The great man is sparing in words but prodigal in deeds.
