From a withered tree, a flower blooms
When watching after yourself, you watch after others. When watching after others, you watch after yourself.
How easy it is to see your brother's faults, How hard it is to face your own.
Don't pray for lighter burdens, but for stronger backs.
Only he who crosses the stream of life wishes to know what is known as unknowable.
One should follow a man of wisdom who rebukes one for one's faults, as one would follow a guide to some buried treasure. To one who follows such a wise man, it will be an advantage and not a disadvantage.
