“A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a months study of books.”

Talk doesn't cook rice.

Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere

People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.

A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.

He who deliberates fully before taking a step will spend his entire life on one leg.

If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape one hundred days of sorrow.

Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.

No man is free who is not master of himself.
