“Be truly whole, and all things will return to you.”

“Whatever is fluid, soft, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. What is soft is strong.”

“For both excessive and insufficient exercise destroy one's strength, and both eating and drinking too much or too little destroy health, whereas the right quantity produces, increases and preserves it.

“In general, mankind, since the improvement of cookery, eats twice as much as nature requires.”

“A fit of laughter, which has been indulged to excess, almost always produces a violent reaction.”

“From the very beginning our people have markedly combined practical capacity for affairs with power of devotion to an ideal. The lack of either quality would have rendered the other of small value.”

“Develop the strength of a man, but live as gently as a woman”

“It's better to fade away like an old soldier than to burn out.”
