There is a time for being ahead, a time for being behind; a time for being in motion, a time for being at rest.

He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.

Your soul has its own timing. Be patient with its ripening.

Every petal of the lotus unfolds in its appointed time.

Keep your strategic counsel secret until the time of execution.

The great bell does not chime for itself; it sounds only when struck. The sage acts only when circumstance calls.

Do not insult the crocodile while your feet are still wading in the river.

Opportunity has hair upon its forehead, but is bald behind; seize it by the forelock as it approaches, for once it passes, none can catch it.

It is never too late to be what you might have been.
