100. Courtesy

If one is easy of access to all, it will be easy for one to obtain the virtue called goodness.

Affectionateness and birth in a good family, these two constitute what is called a proper behaviour to all.

Resemblance of bodies is no resemblance of souls; true resemblance is the resemblance of qualities that attract.

The world applauds the character of those whose usefulness results from their equity and charity.

Reproach is painful to one even in sport; those (therefore) who know the nature of others exhibit (pleasing) qualities even when they are hated.

The (way of the) world subsists by contact with the good; if not, it would bury itself in the earth and perish.

He who is destitute of (true) human qualities (only) resembles a tree, though he may possess the sharpness of a file.

It is wrong (for the wise) not to exhibit (good) qualities even towards those who bearing no friendship (for them) do only what is hateful.

To those who cannot rejoice, the wide world is buried darkness even in (broad) day light.

The great wealth obtained by one who has no goodness will perish like pure milk spoilt by the impurity of the vessel.
