Truly letting go of being liked, desired, accepted or approved of may be the greatest revolution ever. |
Be loyal to your own peace of mind. |
The sharpest sword is a word spoken in wrath. |
The young man knows the rules, but the old man knows the exceptions. |
Someone who smiles too much with you can sometime frown too much with you at your back. |
Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom. |
Bravery is not a quality of the body. It is of the soul. |
A wise man adapts himself to circumstances, as water shapes itself to the vessel that contains it. |
Not everyone will appreciate what you do for them. You have to figure out who's worth your kindness and who's just taking advantage. |
If you wish to glimpse inside a human soul and get to know a man, don't bother analyzing his ways of being silent, of talking, of weeping, of seeing how much he is moved by noble ideas; you will get better results if you just watch him laugh. If he laughs well, he's a good man. |
