"Faithfulness and sincerity are the highest things...." - Quote by Confucius

“How to play music may be known. At the commencement of the piece, all the parts should sound together. As it proceeds, they should be in harmony while severally distinct and flowing without break, and thus on to the conclusion.”

“Man who want pretty nurse, must be patient.”

“He who needs only coarse food, water and drink, and as pillow his folded arms will find happiness without further search.”

“Don't pretend that you can just be oblivious to politics. You can't. What you never do is break your personal code. Have a code and keep it. You should never compromise what your priorities are.”

“If the gentleman is not serious, he will not be respected, and his learning will not be on a firm foundation. He considers loyalty and faithfulness to be fundamental, has no friends who are not like him, and when he has made mistakes, he is not afraid of correcting them.”

“I'm going to take the high road because the low road is so crowded.”

“How little of permanent happiness could belong to a couple who were only brought together because their passions were stronger than their virtue.”

“The regular path of virtue is to be pursued without any bend, and from no view to emolument.”

“Be good, sweet maid, and don't forget that this involves being as clever as you can.”
