If you have no backing, become your own backing! If you have no kingdom, build your own! If you have no capital, earn your own! There is no savior in this world. When you are weak, all difficulties become strong; when you are strong, all obstacles become weak. One should find a way through mountains and build a bridge over water. To life: you give me pressure, and I give you miracles!
Sometimes, the most urgent and important thing you need to do is to rest completely.
When love begins, the ends of the earth feel close; when it ends, closeness feels like the ends of the earth.
Life is simply living: being born to survive is living; keeping the life going is living; acting for survival is living. Love life and live it well.
A watch wound too tightly will not run long; a car driven at its limit will not last; a string stretched too tight will not play long; and a person with tense emotions will easily fall ill. Therefore, a wise user of watches does not wind them too tight; a wise driver does not drive too fast; a wise musician does not over-tighten the strings; and a wise person for health maintains a relaxed and happy mood. With a little attention, we can see that healthy people rely on consistent exercise and a relaxed state of mind as the foundation of their well-being.
If you love someone, enjoy the process rather than obsessing over the outcome. If the outcome is not good, do not hurt yourself. Hurting yourself will only make the person who doesn't love you feel more annoyed by you. Once your value has been diminished by being unloved, do not lose any more of it.
What one should do in life is to elevate one's own realm! If you do not change the mesh of your sieve, the sand you catch will always be the same size.
Between toil and pleasure, you choose the former and forgo the latter. At a fork in the road, you choose the uphill path rather than the downhill path.
Turn helplessness into wings, and fly freely across the vast sky.
As long as you are alive, there is hope for everything.
Laughing through pain is merely a way to strive for growth.
No one is born with everything or can rule the world with one hand. The direction of life determines one's encounters. Looking back, one understands life; looking forward, one lives life.
Smooth roads are easy to walk, but only muddy roads leave footprints.
You place too much importance on yourself, yet also care too much about others' evaluations. You are intimidated by the bluster of others' strength and begin to doubt yourself. Even when you have foresight, you never dare to take that first step of trying before it is proven. You are defeated by yourself step by step—from the day you start making excuses for your own hesitation, you have already begun to become the person you once looked down upon.
Life is short, so we must tell ourselves: live every day with a positive attitude; learn to heal your soul instead of hiding in the shadows of yesterday; do what needs to be done, and tomorrow will naturally come.
