The deeper the loss.”

And gradually arrive at clarity?
Who can move with stability,
And gradually bring endurance to life?”
“In dealing with others, be gentle and kind.
In speech, be true.
In ruling, be just.”
“Evolved individuals put themselves last, and yet they are first.
They put themselves outside, and yet they remain.
Is it not because they are without self interest that their interests succeed?”
“Without expectation, one will always perceive the subtlety;
With expectation, one will always perceive the boundary.”
