Human beings protect the purity of manmade temples. Similarly, looking after the sanctity of this human body, a temple created by God, should become a spiritual endeavour that is of utmost importance.
As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world – that is the myth of the atomic age – as in being able to remake ourselves.
The superior man does not embark upon any affair until he has carefully planned the start.
A man who is averse to harming even the wind knows the sorrow of all living things.
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.
The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them.
