[I have three precious things 
which I hold fast 
and prize. 
The first is 
gentleness; 
the second is 
frugality; 
the third is 
humility, 
which keeps me from 
putting myself 
before others. 
Be gentle 
and you can be bold; 
be frugal 
and you can be liberal; 
avoid putting yourself before others 
and you can become 
a leader 
among men.] 
― Lao Tzu
