Every human being's essential nature is perfect and faultless, but after years of immersion in the world we easily forget our roots and take on a counterfeit nature.
When a nation is filled with strife, then do patriots flourish.
There is no illusion great than fear.
It is wealth to be content.
Water does not force its way.
Man is ruled by Earth. Earth is ruled by Heaven. Heaven is ruled by the Way. The Way is ruled by itself.
