A jug fills drop by drop.
An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.
Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.
Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue.
