Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

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

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

Because of a great love, one is courageous.

A scholar who cherishes the love of comfort is not fit to be deemed a scholar.

If the Great Way perishes there will morality and duty. When cleverness and knowledge arise great lies will flourish. When relatives fall out with one another there will be filial duty and love. When states are in confusion there will be faithful servants.

How could man rejoice in victory and delight in the slaughter of men?

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.

Nature is not human hearted.
