If practicality and morality are polarized and you must choose, you must do what you think is right, rather than what you think is practical.

Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it.

So far, about morals, I know only that what is moral is what you feel good after and what is immoral is what you feel bad after.

Right and wrong is a matter of perspective.

Those who know don’t talk. Those who talk don’t know. Close your mouth, block off your senses, blunt your sharpness, untie your knots, soften your glare, settle your dust. This is the primal identity. Be like the Tao. It can’t be approached or withdrawn from, benefited or harmed, honored or brought into disgrace. It gives itself up continually. That is why it endures.

The hard and mighty lie beneath the ground
While the tender and weak dance on the breeze above.
