Warriors say: I dare not be like the host, but would rather be like the guest. I dare not advance an inch, but would rather retreat a foot.
Realize thy Simple Self, Embrace thy Original Nature.
The small is easy to scatter.
Do not strive for the shine of jade, but clatter like stone.
...the more you talk of it, the less you understand.
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.
