“Nothing at all is to be valued, but life should be sweet. You should not serve things; things should serve you.”
“The whole secret of life is to be interested in one thing profoundly and a thousand other things well.”
“One whose intentions and thoughts are cultivated will disregard wealth and nobility. One whose greatest concern is for the Way and righteousness will take lightly kings and dukes. It is simply that when one examines oneself on the inside, external goods carry little weight. A saying goes, "The gentleman makes things his servants. The petty man is servant to things."”
