Ambition never comes to an end.

You should never put the new antlers of a deer to your nose and smell them. They have little insects that crawl into the nose and devour the brain.

If you imagine that once you have accomplished your ambitions you will have time to turn to the Way, you will discover that your ambitions never come to an end.

Life's most precious gift is uncertainty.

If life were eternal, all interest and anticipation would vanish. It is uncertainty which lends it fascination.

If you must take care that your opinions do not differ in the least from those of the person with whom you are talking, you might just as well be alone.

Leave undone whatever you hesitate to do.
