If I Do Not Participate

There Are Three Friendships Which Are Advantageous, And Three Which Are Injurious. Friendship With The Upright; Friendship With The Sincere; And Friendship With The Man Of Much Observation: These Are Advantageous. Friendship With The Man Of Specious Airs; Friendship With The Insinuatingly Soft; And Friendship With The Glib-tongued: These Are Injurious.

The Real Fault Is To Have Faults And Not Amend Them.

Don't Worry About Being Acknowledged By Others; Worry About Failing To Acknowledge Them.

The Man Of Upright Life Is Obeyed Before He Speaks.

As The Water Shapes Itself To The Vessel That Contains It, So A Wise Man Adapts Himself To Circumstances.
