We shall heal our wounds, collect our dead and continue fighting.

In time of difficulties, we must not lose sight of our achievements.

Letting a hundred flowers blossom and a hundred schools of thought contend is the policy for promoting the progress of the arts and the sciences and a flourishing culture in our land.

It's painful, but we can't heal ourselves unless we cleanse the wounds.

to heal
you have to
get to the root
of the wound
and kiss it all the way up

In waking a tiger, use a long stick.
