In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous.
When you stand with both feet firmly on the ground, you will always keep your balance.
He who stands on tiptoe doesn't stand firm. He who rushes ahead doesn't go far.
One must learn to love oneself—thus I teach—with a whole and healthy love: that one may endure oneself and not go wandering about.
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree.
Carefree wandering is the sacred art of being utterly at home wherever your feet touch the ground.
Right now, we are still breathing. We are alive.
