The Earth Is Supported By The Power

If One Has A Good Disposition, What Other Virtue Is Needed? If A Man Has Fame, What Is The Value Of Other Ornamentation?

Water Is The Medicine For Indigestion; It Is Invigorating When The Food That Is Eaten Is Well Digested; It Is Like Nectar When Drunk In The Middle Of A Dinner; And It Is Like Poison When Taken At The End Of A Meal.

Even A Captured Enemy Is Not To Be Trusted.

Those Base Men Who Speak Of The Secret Faults Of Others Destroy Themselves Like Serpents That Stray Onto Anthills.

Wealth, A Friend, A Wife, And A Kingdom May Be Regained; But This Body When Lost May Never Be Acquired Again.
