Conquering others takes force, conquering yourself is true strength.
The weak overcomes the strong. The soft overcomes the hard. Everybody in the world knows this, still nobody makes use of it.
Those who know when it is enough will not perish.
The subtlest of subtleties, this is the gateway to all mysteries.
First, we must do our own personal work, then we tend the necessary work of our family, then our community, then the world.
Human being's essential nature is perfect and faultless.
