"If mortals wait until the gods remake the world to their liking to be happy, they are already in hell."
"prophecies do not alter fate, only confirm it."
"The young see what they wish to see. The old see what they do not wish."
"In yielding we are like the water, by nature placid, conforming to the hollow of the smallest hand; in time, shaping even the mountains to its will. Thus we keep duty and honor. We cherish clan and civilization. We are Chinese."
"to ask for anything of consequence from friends who cannot refuse is uncivilized."
