“What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others.”

To be wealthy and honored in an unjust society is a disgrace.

Act with kindness but do not expect gratitude.

Faced with what is right, to leave it undone shows a lack of courage.

Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.

When the wind blows,the grass bends.

Time flows away like the water in the river.

Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.

Without knowing the force of words, it is impossible to know more.

If you make a mistake and do not correct it, this is called a mistake.

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.

In a country well governed, poverty is something to be ashamed of. In a country badly governed, wealth is something to be ashamed of.

It is not the failure of others to appreciate your abilities that should trouble you, but rather your failure to appreciate theirs.

Virtue is never left to stand alone. He who has it will have neighbors.

Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles.

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.

Don’t complain about the snow on your neighbor’s roof when your own doorstep is unclean.
