The enlightened attention rejects nothing nor welcomes anything-like a mirror it responds equally to all.

Heaven does without doing through its purity, Earth does without doing through its calmness.

Luck implies an absolute absence of any principle.

By ethical argument and moral principle the greatest crimes are eventually shown to have been necessary, and, in fact, a signal benefit to mankind.

One whose inner being is fixed upon such greatness emits a Heavenly glow. Even though he has this Heavenly glow, others will see him as just a man. Someone who has reached this point will begin to be consistent.

The eyes envy the mind.

The true man breathes with his heels.
