Though thousand times a thousand in battle one may conquer, yet should one conquer just oneself, one is the greatest conqueror.

Those who are pure in heart and single in purpose are able to understand the most supreme Way. It is like polishing a mirror, which becomes bright when the dust is removed. Remove your passions, and have no hankering.

Flower and thorn are in the same stem.

If a man's thoughts are muddy, If he is reckless and full of deceit, How can he wear the yellow robe? Whoever is master of his own nature, Bright, clear and true, He may indeed wear the yellow robe.

Most problems, if you give them enough time and space, will eventually wear themselves out

No light is brighter than wisdom. Wisdom is the light in the world.
