Goodness in words creates trust, goodness in thinking creates depth, goodness in giving creates love.

Cautious, like crossing a river in the winter.

Knowing others is to be clever. Knowing yourself is to be enlightened. Overcoming others requires force. Overcoming yourself requires strength.

A foolish man is always doing, Yet much remains to be done.

Truthful words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not truthful. Good words are not persuasive; persuasive words are not good.

Because one believes in oneself, one doesn't try to convince. Because one is content with oneself, one doesn't need others' approval. Because one accepts oneself, the whole world accepts him or her.

The biggest in the world is small in its beginning.
