Without Goodness one cannot enjoy enduring happiness

If you devote your life to seeking revenge, first dig two graves.

Our headstrong passions shut the door of our souls against God.

Every house guest brings you happiness. Some when they arrive, and some when they are leaving

If you want to change the world, first change your heart.

Without knowing the force of words, it is impossible to know more.

In ancient times, those who wished to illuminate the world with virtue first brought order to their nations. Wishing to order well their nations, they first harmonized their families. Wishing to harmonize their families, they first cultivated themselves. Wishing to cultivate themselves, they first rectified their minds. Those who wished to rectify their minds first made their intentions sincere.
