The ways are two: love and want of love. That is all.

He who loves others is constantly loved by them. He who respects others is constantly respected by them.

Only those who develop their minds and spirits to the utmost can serve Heaven and fulfill their own destinies.

Friendship with a man is friendship with his virtue, and does not admit of assumptions of superiority.

To lay hold of the mean without taking into account the occasion is like grasping one thing only.

The feeling of compassion is the beginning of humanity.

Only when someone refuses to do certain things will he be capable of doing great things.
