Truly, only those who see illness as illness can avoid illness.

Complete your task. Seek no reward. Make no claims. Without faltering fully choose to do what you must do.

Take care of what is difficult while it is still easy, and deal with what will become big while it is yet small.

Use your light, but dim your brightness.

The truly great ones rely on substance, and not on surface, hold on to the fruit, and not to the flower.

Not knowing of the eternal leads to unfortunate errors.

The softest of stuff in the world, penetrates quickly the hardest, insubstantial, it enters where there is no room.
