Great talents ripen late; the highest notes are hard to hear.

Those who stand on their toes are not steady.

The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.

The more we give to others, the more we are increased.

I let go of all desire for the common good, and the good becomes as common as the grass.

So the unwanting soul sees what's hidden, and the ever-wanting soul sees only what it wants.

Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding.
