The world is a sacred vessel. It should not be meddled with. It should not be owned. If you try to meddle with it you will ruin it. If you try to own it you will lose it

Let people return to making knots on ropes, instead of writing.

There is no calamity greater than lightly engaging in war.

To be worn out is to be renewed.

The highest benevolence acts without purpose.
