“Love is of all the passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart, and the senses.”

“There is nothing in the world more soft and weak than water, and yet for attacking things that are firm and strong there is nothing that can take precedence of it;—for there is nothing (so effectual) for which it can be changed.”

“Allow the heart to empty itself of all turmoil! Retrieve the utter tranquility of the mind from which you issued.Although all forms are dynamic,and we all grow and transform,each of us is compelled to return to our root. Our root is quietude.”

“If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.”

“if you want to know me, look inside your heart.”

“Close your mouth,block off your senses,blunt your sharpness,untie your knots,soften your glare,settle your dust.This is the primal identity.”

“When pure sincerity forms within, it is outwardly realized in other people's hearts.”
