“Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses.”

“The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved.”

“I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.”

“Tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember; involve me and I will understand.”

“Music produces a kind of pleasure which human nature cannot do without.”

“The man of wisdom is never of two minds;the man of benevolence never worries;the man of courage is never afraid.”

“Fix your mind on truth, hold firm to virtue, rely on loving kindness, and find your recreation in the Arts.”
