To those who praise everything, say little; to those who condemn everything, believe less; to those who are indifferent to everything, believe not at all; to the outstanding, trust but do not depend; to the ordinary, trust and also depend; to the detestable, neither depend nor trust. There is no feast that does not end; the ultimate destination of life is death. The moment of eternal sleep is like the end of a grand ball. The people met and stories shared in that ball eventually vanish like dust as the soul drifts away.
This is a common mindset, and because of it, most people spend vast amounts of time stuck in their own small perspectives, agonizing over life's goals without ever taking a single step forward.
The establishment of great achievements in life lies not in knowing, but in doing.
Those who are confident possess the world.
If your achievements yesterday were remarkable, it means you haven't done enough today.
If you gaze at a flower for a long time, you will become a butterfly.
Wise people use the hard-earned experiences of others as their own; foolish people only learn after they have struck their heads bloody.
The sudden ideas that constantly arise in the human mind are what create the twists and turns of life.
