Some not only have closed their minds to new truth, but they sit on the
lid." | |

Kung Fu-tzu Confucius

|
| "You will find it less easy to uproot faults than to choke them by
gaining virtues. Do not think of your faults, still less of other"s
faults. In every person who comes near you look for what is good and
strong; honor that; try to imitate it, and your faults will drop off like
dead leaves when their time comes." | |

John Ruskin
