CONFUCIUS (Buddisms) #7

A Poem by Butch Decatoria


It is said "Life is short"
but in truth Life's very tall
"Be" a good giant.







NOTE--ACTUAL CONFUCIUS QUOTES:

Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it.
I want you to be everything that's you, deep at the center of your being.
Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.
Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.
Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.
I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.
What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.
