SEEING THROUGH HIS EYES






Book XVII
 
2. The Master said, By nature, near together; by practice, far apart.

3.  The Master said, It is only the very wisest and the very stupidest who cannot change.

11.  The Master said, Ritual, ritual!  Does it mean no more than presents of jade and silk?  Music, music!  Does it mean no more than bells and drums?

14.   The Master said, To tell in the lane what you heard on the highroad is to throw merit away.
