hasten slowly

Maintain the state of undistractedness and distractions will fly off.
Dwell alone and you shall find a friend.
Take the lowest place and you shall reach the highest.
Hasten slowly and you will soon arrive.
Renounce all worldly goals and you shall reach the highest goal.

the storehouse of spirit

Life, death, preservation, loss, failure, success, poverty, riches, worthiness, unworthiness, slander, fame, hunger, thirst, cold, heat -- these are the alternations of the world, the workings of fate. Day and night they change places before us and wisdom cannot spy out their source. Therefore they should not be enough to destroy your harmony; they should not be allowed to enter the storehouse of spirit.

Chuang-tzu (approximately 369-286 B.C.E.)
