Chinese Proverbs on Wealth and Virtue
Dig 2 well before you are thirsty. The ripest fruit will not fall into your mouth. Great wealth means destiny. Moderate wealth means industry. The pleasure of doing good is the only one that does not wear out. Water does not linger on a mountain nor vengeance in a great mind. Nourish the heart by desiring little. When life comes it cannot be declined. When it goes it cannot be detained. Good governments gain the people's wealth, while good teachings win their hearts. Those who work with their minds govern others. Those who labor with their strength are governed by others. A small bag cannot hold what is large. A short rope cannot draw water from a deep well. Let each person sweep the snow from their own door before worrying about their neighbor's frost.
