不能与心意相通的人在一起,徒然编织着同心草。
When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your husband or your children, endeavor to overcome it by argument and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory.
不克制意志便能高洁,不讲求仁义就能修身,不追求功业名声便能使天下太平,不隐居江海也得静闲,不用导引之术而得高寿,忘掉上面这一切,而又具备这一切。淡然至极,而一切美好的东西都随之而来,这就是天道,圣人之规律。
The only way to get to the top is to climb the mountain, not to wait for the elevator.
