More on Virtue
“The Master said, “A true gentleman is one who has set his heart upon the Way. A fellow who is ashamed merely of shabby clothing or modest meals is not even worth conversing with.” (Analects 4.9)”
“Pride is handsome, economical; pride eradicates so many vices, letting none subsist but itself, that it seems as if it were a great gain to exchange vanity for pride.”
“Friendship was given by nature to be an assistant to virtue, not a companion in vice.”
More on Love
“Be wild and crazy and drunk with Love,if you are too careful, LOVE will not find you.”
“Like love, the light or guidance of truth that influences us exists only in living form, not in principles or rules or expectations or advice, however widely circulated”
“Love is simply the name for the desire and pursuit of the whole.”
