Be merciful, moderate, and modest.
Make your heart like a lake, with calm, still surface, and great depths of kindness.
Let muddy water stand and it will become clear.
The world is won by those who let it go.
Why is the sea king of a hundred streams? Because it lies below them... If the sage would guide the people, he must serve with humility. If he would lead them, he must follow behind. In this way when the sage rules, the people will not feel oppressed.
Without going outside, you may know the whole world!
