“The Master said, The case is like that of someone raising a mound. If he stops working, the fact that it perhaps needed only one more basketful makes no difference; I stay where I am. Whereas even if he has not got beyond leveling the ground, but is still at work, the fact that he has only tilted one basketful of earth makes no difference. I go to help him.”
“The superior man does what is proper to the station in which he is; he does not desire to go beyond this.”
“Possessed of courage but devoid of morality, a superior man will make trouble while a small man will be a brigand.”

“Every man who has declared that some other man is an ass or a scoundrel, gets angry when the other man conclusively shows that the assertion was erroneous.”
“Anger should never appear in awarding punishment.”
“We must set limits to our wishes, curb our desires, moderate our anger, always remembering that an individual can attain only an infinitesimal share in anything that is worth having; and that on the other hand, everyone must incur many of the ills of life”
More on Emotions
“Fear gone, there can be no hatred.”
“Peace was the third emotion. Love. Hate. Peace. Three emotions made the ply of human life.”
“I want characters to have voices that feel authentic, unique, honest, fresh and original - all at once. Part of that authenticity is evoking genuine emotion across life - the sadness, passion, love, sense of loss, missed opportunities, and confusion even. All of this helps us realize that our choices do impact the lives that we eventually lead.”
