The things that people say,
Whether good or ill,
Surely can all profit us
If we but listen well.
Empress Shoken
(Hitogoto no yokimo ashikimo kokoroshite
Kikeba wagami no tameto koso nare)
You can draw some profit from everything people say, even from those things that at first sound offensive. But for this, constant self-examination is required.
Meiji Jingu Tokyo 28.02.2009
