jeffmiao Posted December 13, 2008 at 03:42 PM Report Posted December 13, 2008 at 03:42 PM 一万年太久，只争朝夕 The instant you speak about a thing, you miss the mark. If you're attached to anything, you surely will go far astray. Only the crystal-clear question yields a transparent answer. All of the significant battles are waged within the self. Life is the only thing worth living for. Better to sit all night than to go to bed with a dragon. Live every day like your hair was on fire. If you understand, things are just as they are; if you do not understand, things are just as they are. When you get to the top of the mountain, keep climbing. The mind should be as a mirror. There is nothing infinite apart from finite things. Everyday life is the way. Quote
