In this world of chance and change and mutability, the fulfillment of any resolve depends on the will of the Lord.

It is only when our life proceeds within bounds and in an accepted, disciplined way, that the mind can be free.

If a man achieves victory over this body, who in the world can exercise power over him? He who rules himself rules over the whole world.

If we wish our nature to be free and joyous, we should bring our activities into same order.

When a king speaks, the armies move. But when a wise man speaks, only the beard shakes.

We cannot fight new wars with old weapons.

When we will all see our role in society as servants, we will all light up the sky together like countless stars on a dark night. Don’t think of society as the sky on a full moon night. The moon’s harsh light blinds us to the true and humble work of the stars. But on a moonless night, the true servants shine forth, as though they are connected invisibly in this vast and infinite cosmos.
