幸福永远存在于人类不安的追求中，而不存在于和谐与稳定之中。

美的真谛应该是和谐。这种和谐体现在人身上，就造就了人的美；表现在物上，就造就了物的美；融汇在环境中，就造就了环境的美。

世间最平和的快乐就是静观天地与人世慢慢地品味出它的和谐。

君子和而不同。

家必自毁，而后人毁之。

居家有二语，曰：惟怒则平情，惟俭则足用。

家和万事兴！

君子和而不同，小人同而不和。

我们说生命最重要的是和谐。我们所追求的和谐，并不是要消灭一切纷争与不和，使之平静得犹如一潭死水。实际上，生命是一种在动态里达到的均衡境界的过程。健康之人的气血就在不断地运动循环：春天让自己的气血向外生发，夏季长势喜人，秋季收获储备，冬季好好补养。

四季不断流转，人的气血也就随之经历了生、长、收、藏的运动过程，从而使人体气血充足，身体健康茁壮。我们身处的地球也处在不断运动之中，我们自身的小磁场要与地球大磁场相互应和，遵循宇宙间万事万物变化的规律，“天人合一”的智慧也在于此。

事实上，中国文化中所谓受命于“天”也不是、至少不完全是超越性的宗教概念，而带有浓厚的世俗色彩。“天人合一”、“天听自我民听”，“天”更多的是此岸而不是彼岸的东西，“天意”常常被解释为人心、民意。

迷藏捉到这个地步，也不知捉的是谁，躲的又是谁，境由心生，境却不由书灭，黄粱一梦，窗外东方又大白，世上一日，书中千年，但觉天人合一，物我两忘，落花流水，天上人间。

善言天者，必验于人;善言人者，必本于天。

善摄生者，无犯日月之忌，无失岁时之和。

夫人禀五常，因风气而生长，风气虽能生万物，亦能害万物，如水能浮舟，亦能覆舟。

人是小乾坤，得阳则生，失阳则死。

天地之理，有开必有合;用药之机，有补必有泻。

医也者，顺天之时，测气之偏，适人之情，体物之理。

精是吾神，气是无道，藏精养气，保守坚真。

人生如天地，和煦则春，惨郁则秋。

春生夏长，秋收冬藏。

夫百病者，多以旦慧、昼安、夕加、夜甚。

日出而作，日入而息。

四时阴阳者，万物之根本也。

天复地载，万物悉备，莫贵于人。

人以天地之气生，四时之法成。

善言天者，必有验于人;善言古者，必有合于今;善言人者，必有厌于己。

细草微风岸,危樯独夜舟。星垂平野阔,月涌大江流。名岂文章著,官因老病休。飘飘何所似,天地一沙鸥。

I didn't have much confidence in myself... never.

My child was one of Nature's Tories pitted against a mother who was one of nurture's Lefties: it was no contest.

No one can predict to what heights you can soar. Even you will not know until you spread your wings.

I went to Northwestern because I had gone to a really nontraditional high school. I was like, 'It'd be cool to have a traditional college experience.' Then I was like, 'Oh, but none of these people understand what's cool about me. My specialness is not appreciated in this place.'

What I like about New York City is nobody cares. If they do, they don't ever approach. They just give you a 'What's up?' and that's it.

If you're cast right you can actually just let yourself go because all your gestures will be right, all your intonations will be right because you just somewhere understand who this person is.

People in tough times - it doesn't mean they don't have a great attitude.

If you can't do it and do it well, you can't do it, period.

Children are resilient and strong with powerful spirits.

I told my extremely conservative, uber-traditional Korean father, 'Hey, Dad, I know what I want to do for the rest of my life. I want to be an actor.'

This little hobbit saves the world. The wizard kills the dragon and saves the town. So many people connect to that character; it doesn't matter if it's an elf or a hobbit or a dwarf. It doesn't matter. They're human in their heart and soul.

Many girls aspire to a version of selfhood that puts a psychological glass ceiling on their potential to succeed. They suffer from what I call the Curse of the Good Girl: the pressure to be liked by everyone, generous to a fault, and flawless at everything you do.

Do people really want liberty, equality, fraternity? Is it not some manner of speaking?

If I'm outside, I want something flat on my feet.

We want a country. and we will get it, our country.

I don't know what it is that I'm doing, but I'm really enjoying myself. And I'm free to do it as much as I want.

Choosing a path for convenience and speed is usually a recipe for mediocrity. The things that most enrich our lives usually demand a bigger investment of time and discipline.

I'm not a big fan of any video, especially my own. In a word, I hated the Hall & Oates videos.

My father would have been made a bishop much earlier than he was had it not been for me and my image.

Every Friday, my dad would rent three videos. Me and my brother would ask for something with guns or fighting, but my dad would say, 'Come on, think about it.' He'd choose more involving films like 'Pulp Fiction,' and at the end of the night, we'd agree that they were great.

The cutthroat avenues of rock 'n' roll, I am fed up with. I don't want anything to do with it.
