“If others do not respond to your love with love, look into your own benevolence; if others fail to respond to your attempts to govern them with order, look into your own respect. In other words, look into yourself whenever you fail to achieve your purpose. When you are correct in your person, the Empire will turn to you.”

“It was the rare girl who could resist that line, especially if she wasn’t all that hot to begin with. Blushes, giggles. All we needed to say then was “I’m out of your league, but what the hell,” and ten out of ten girls would spring out of their chairs and follow you to a secluded corner to do whatever you wanted.”

“Of vices -- none is more onerous than wanting too much.
Of defects -- none brings more sorrow than the desire to gain.
Of disasters -- none is greater than not knowing when one has enough.
The contentment one has when he knows that he has enough.
This is abiding contentment indeed”
― Tao Te Ching

“It is not worth the trouble to talk to a man who has no respect for himself, and it is not worth the trouble to make a common effort with a man who has no confidence in himself. The former attacks morality; the latter says, "I do not think I am capable of abiding by benevolence or of following rightness." Benevolence is man's peaceful abode and rightness his proper path. It is indeed lamentable for anyone not to live in his peaceful abode and not to follow his proper path.”
