The natural laws of the universe are inviolable... what you say and do determines what happens in your life... You are the master of your life and death. What you do is what you are.

The Way is ever nameless.

You cannot know the body by studying the finger, and you cannot understand the universe by learning one science.

The tree which fills the arms grew from the tiniest sprout.

My words are very easy to understand and very easy to practice; but there is no one in the world who is able to understand and practice them.

No misfortune is worse than underestimating the enemy. Underestimating the enemy, I risk losing my treasure.

Empty your mind of all thoughts. Let your heart be at peace. Watch the turmoil of beings, but contemplate their return.
