The myriad things are complete in us. There is no greater joy than to reflect on ourselves and become sincere.

Evil exists to glorify the good. Evil is negative good. It is a relative term. Evil can be transmuted into good. What is evil to one at one time, becomes good at another time to somebody else.

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.

The Tao is near and people seek it far away.

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

The great person never loses a childlike spirit.

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.
