“ Only when there are things a man will not do is he capable of doing great things. ”
A man must not be without shame, for the shame of being without shame is shamelessness indeed.
~ Mencius
Words that speak of things close at hand and carry far-reaching implications – those are the good words.
Words that defy reality are ominous. And it’s ominous reality that confronts those who would obscure the wise and worthy.
There’s only one way to know if people are good or evil: look at the choices they make. We each contain precious and worthless, great and small. Never injure the great for the sake of the small, or the precious for the sake of the worthless. Small people nurture what is small in them; great people nurture what is great in them.
