Keep in mind...

Understand one thing well, and you have arrived.

What prevents you from knowing is not the lack
of opportunity, but the lack of ability to focus
in your mind what you want to understand.

If you
could but keep in mind what you do not know, it
would reveal to you its secrets.

But if you are
shallow and impatient, not earnest enough to look
and wait, you are like a child crying for the moon.
