Virtuous people often revenge themselves for the constraints to which they submit by the boredom which they inspire.

The only way to gall and fret effectively is for yourself to be a good and honest man.

Things have their roots and branches. Affairs have their beginnings and their ends. To know what is first and what is last will lead one near the Way.

I warn you, if you bore me, I shall take my revenge.

They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.

For some people, there must be. I'm just the wrong guy.
