Here's my top ten inspirational Asian quotes:
1) Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.
2) Hold faithfulness and sincerity as first principles.
3) Enjoy yourself. It’s later than you think.
4) Sow much, reap much; sow little, reap little.
5) He who sacrifices his conscience to ambition burns a picture to obtain the ashes.
6) Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it.
7) The gem cannot be polished without friction, nor man perfected without trials.
8) If we don’t change the direction we are going, we are likely to end up where we are heading.
9) He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior.
10) Mastering others requires force; Mastering the self requires enlightenment.
I wonder if you have any others that you would add? Which is your favourite?
