"Not forever Can one enjoy Stillness and peace. But misfortune and destruction are not final. When the grass Has been burnt By the fire of the steppe, It will grow anew In summer." This means that nothing last forever. Times of peace won't last but bad times aren't the end. Everything will stop and then it will begin again.

"I have bought bread and I have been given red roses: How happy I am to hold both in my hands!" The writer in this quote is saying that they're grateful for being able to give themself things, and grateful being given things at the same time.

"He who is Really kind Can never be unhappy; He who is really wise can never be confused; he who is really brave is never afraid."
This means if you are to much of something then you can't be the opposite of what you are.

"Thousands upon thousands of rivers flow into the sea, But the sea is never full - and if man could turn stone into gold, still would his heart never be contented"

Humans are greedy by nature, and if they could have every possession in the world, they would never be satisfied with what they have been given.

"Man has three ways of acting wisely: Firstly, on Meditation, This is the noblest; Secondly, on imitation, This is the easiest; and Thirdly, on Experience: This is the bitterest."
I think that this quote is trying to explain that man act wisely in three ways. Those ways are Meditation, Imitation, and Experience.

"Freedom from desire leads to inward peace"

I interpret this as meaning to lean away from your desires and disconnect yourself from humanly wants. This will pull you towards peace.

Jorge Gutierrez

"Freedom from desire leads to Inward Peace '
I suggest that it means for someone to fully live life and have eternal peace , you would have accept and acknowledge who you are and be happy with what you have

" A carpet lay on a road traveled by many, and when evening came it was grey and dusty like the road. There upon I said unto my soul: This is thy parable, O soul, when thou endurest patiently the market and the incidents of the market."

I think this means to follow your own path .

"Man cannot for a thousand days on end enjoy the Good, just as the flower cannot bloom a hundred days."

I have no idea what this means but i think it might possibly , perhaps, on occasion mean that everyday won't be a good one. The good in your life won't always last forever.

" Man has three ways of acting wisely:
Firstly on meditation;this is the noblest
Secondly on imitation; this is the easiest
Thirdly on experience; that is the bitterest'
I believe that this quote is saying that you have three ways to become wise in life
the first one meditation is the highest of ll
the second one imitation is easiest of all
and lastly to be wise based on experience where bad things ocur in your life

Aurian Malek

"Kindness in words creates confidence, Kindness in thinking creates profoundness, Kindness in giving creates LOVE ."

This quote portrays the basic fundamentals and beliefs of ancient Chinese people because it depicts that kindness crates many things and giving and donating creates mutual love and devotion towards one another.

"when you see a worthy person, endeavor to emulate him, When you see an unworthy person, then examine your inner self"
I think it means to check your inner self to see what your doing in your life and to make sure your being humble.

"One joy dispels a hundred cares"

" in the sea of life, in the sea of death my soul, tired in both, seeks the mountain from which the waters have receded"

i think that this quote means that youre gonna get tired of looking for something that went away

"Man's life does not fill A hundred years, But always is it full of A thousand year's cares. Short the midday, Bitter long the nights! Why then do you not grasp the Lamp, seeking out for yourself The short- lived joys, why not today? Why will you wait year after year?"

I think what this quote means is that the more knowledgeable you get doesn't have to do with age our time. It just has to do on what you do to learn in your lifetime and how you can better yourself as a person.

" rejoice at your life, for the time is more advanced than you would think."

you should enjoy your life because life is short

"in this world there is nothing softer or thinner than water but to compel the hard and unyielding it was has no equal that the weak overcomes the stong that the hard gives way to the gentle this everyone knows yet no one acts accordingly ."

2016-09-20 14:03:19 UTC

I think the fist part means to me that hard and easy is equal and the last part to me means just because the rich has money doesn't mean they are happy and if you are poor doesn't mean they have no happiness , that is an example of what I think the last part means

"when you see a worthy person , endeavor to emulate him , when you see an unworthy person , then examine your inner self"

i think it means when you look at others greatness and etc then be like them. if you see a person doing bad or at their low then look at yourself first because you could be the same way.

Natalia Bertadillo

2016-09-20 14:04:34 UTC

"Do you need proof of God? Does one light a torch to see the sun?"

I think that the quote means that the existence of God is Credible and that there's no need for proof to believe in God.

This means to not be worried about the small things in life when many bigger things have more effect on you and need more attention to be put towards, Life can be hard at time. But it will even out.
