Treat the large as the small and the few as the many.
Manifest plainness, embrace simplicity, reduce selfishness, have few desires.
We go from birth to death. Three out of ten follow life. Three out of ten follow death. People who rush from birth to death are also three out of ten. Why is that so? Because they want to make too much of life.
Hold on to the center and make up your mind to rejoice in this paradise called life.
The brittle is easy to shatter.
The soft and weak can overcome the hard and strong.
