The way of truth is like a great highway. It is not hard to find.

The great person never loses a childlike spirit.

When Heaven is about to confer a great office upon you, it first exercises your mind with suffering and your sinews and bones with toil.

The Way lies at hand yet it is sought afar off; the thing lies in the easy yet it is sought in the difficult.

The gap between enthusiasm and indifference is filled with failures. The great man is he that does not lose his child's heart.

If you love men and they are unfriendly, look into your love; if you rule men and they are unruly, look into your wisdom; if you are courteous to them and they do not respond, look into your courtesy. If what you do is vain, always seek within.

By exhaustively examining one's own mind,one may understand his nature.One who understands his own nature understands Heaven.
