A person with a smile can live with openness and optimism; by maintaining a smile at all times, one gains a permanent pass for the long journey of life.
In life, one must never forget those who helped during hardships, nor should one befriend those who despise you in failure. Do not trust those who flatter you in success, do not abandon those who shared your struggles, and do not love those who disrespect your dignity.
Ultimately, you must be the protagonist of your own life, so you must walk forward with strength.
If you cannot do better than others, do not judge them lightly.
Life is a long journey, and living itself is an act of endurance—enduring pain, happiness, mediocrity, loneliness, failure, responsibility, love, and the act of loving. When one learns to let go, nothing becomes unbearable, and nothing is truly irreplaceable, including wealth, power, fame, status, love, career, and even life itself.
The more energy you spend noticing others, the less energy you have to reflect upon yourself.
The most beautiful aspect of life is that even when you cease to exist, your creations can continue to serve others.
Having nothing is precisely the reason to strive.
Everything can change, except our ideals; everything can grow, except our arrogance; everything can age, except our youthful spirit; everything can retreat, except our forward steps.
苦口的是良药,逆耳必是忠言。改过必生智慧,护短心内非贤。
Happiness must be shared to be doubled.
The grace of living lies in balancing toughness with gentleness and having a broad mind. One should be resilient and unyielding, possessing an upright and courageous spirit.
It has been said that everyone meets four people in a lifetime: first, yourself; second, the one you love most; third, the one who loves you most; and fourth, the one you spend your life with. Life loves to play jokes: the one you love most often does not choose you; the one who loves you most is often not the one you love most; and the one who ultimately spends their life with you is often not your greatest love or the one who loves you most, but simply the person who appeared at the most perfect time.
True cultivation is the cultivation of the mind—it is about correcting oneself rather than correcting others. To let go of ego and attachment, and to show compassion to all living beings, is the true essence of Buddhist teachings.
Anyone can become malicious; it is just that you have experienced jealousy.
It is often because of love that you discover so many coincidences in life. Because these coincidences are sometimes frequent and sometimes subtle, they make you feel as if it were destiny, but in reality, it is simply the connection you have built with another—a connection called love.
We must seek victory in failure and hope in despair.
Remain calm in prosperity and composed in adversity.
Life requires planning; do not worry about what you will do years from now, but focus on your goals within the year, and avoid creating too many unrealistic visions.
Do not seek excuses for failure, as that leads to a loss of confidence; instead, seek solutions, for that is where strength is born.
To love someone is to grow with them through the long passage of time and to wither together in the final years of life.
Luck is simply opportunity meeting your hard work.
When one day you emerge from the confusion of life and look back under the setting sun, the crooked and stumbling footprints behind you will constitute the most precious rings of your life, bringing endless relief and emotion whenever you remember them.
If a person can eradicate one bad habit every year, it won't be long before they become a person of excellence.
When you need help, you can rely on your own hands. In old age, you will find that these hands can solve many problems—one hand to help yourself, and the other to help others.
