Mankind fears an evil man but heaven does not.

All things are already complete in us. There is no greater delight than to be conscious of right within us. If one strives to treat others as he would be treated by them, he shall not fail to come near the perfect life.

Those who follow the part of themselves which is great are great men; those who follow the part which is little are little men.

All people have the common desire to be elevated in honour, but all people have something still more elevated in themselves without knowing it.

The way is near, but men seek it afar. It is in easy things, but men seek for it in difficult things.

Sincerity is the way to heaven.

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