以言语讥人，取祸之大端；
以度量容人，集福之要术；
以势力折人，招尤之未远；
以道德化人，得誉之流长。
以舍为有，则不贪；
以忙为乐，则不苦；
以勤为富，则不贫；
以忍为力，则不惧。
弘一法师
To ridicule people with speech will rally great troubles, to forgive people with magnanimity is the principle way to collect blessings;
To subdue people with power will soon rally grudges, to influence people with virtues will gain ever-lasting reputation;
A man will not be greedy as long as he could take letting go as to possess; a man will not feel suffering as long as he could enjoy being occupied by his work.
A man will not be poor as long as he could take diligence as his wealth; a man will not fear as long as he could take forbearance as his power.
~ dharma quote by contemporary Chinese eminent monk Great Master Hong Yi
