He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior.

One who can move mountains start with the little stones.

Possessed of courage but devoid of morality, a superior man will make trouble while a small man will be a brigand.

The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men do not recognize the ability that he has.

For benefits return benefits; for injuries return justice without any admixture of revenge.

Expect much from yourself and little from others and you will avoid incurring resentments

Of all that Heaven produces and nourishes, there is none so great as man.
