To be of few words is natural.

The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.

The mark of a moderate man is freedom from his own ideas. Tolerant like the sky, all-pervading like sunlight, firm like a mountain, supple like a tree in the wind, he has no destination in view and makes use of anything life happens to bring his way.

Your name or your body, what is dearer? Your body or your wealth, what is worthier?

Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream.

People in their handlings of affairs often fail when they are about to succeed. If one remains as careful at the end as he was at the beginning, there will be no failure.

If you wish to be out front, then act as if you were behind.
