In the Way of Heaven, there is no partiality of love; it is always on the side of the good man.

He who is able to conquer others is powerful; he who is able to conquer himself is more powerful.

If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself, if you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation.

The forceful and violent will not die from natural causes.

Supreme good is like water. Water greatly benefits all things, without conflict. It flows through places that people loathe. Thereby it is close to the Way.

Strong winds do not last all morning, hard rains do not last all day.

If you correct your mind the rest of your life will fall into place.
