If you trust neither in yourself nor in others, you will rejoice when things go well, but bear no resentment when they go badly. You will then have room on either side to expand, and not be constrained. With nothing too close before or behind you, you will not be blocked. When a man is cramped for space, he is broken and crushed. When the activity of the mind is constricted and rigid, a man will come into collision with things at every turn and be harmed by disputes. If you have space for maneuvering and are flexible, not one hair will be harmed.Man is the most miraculous of creatures within heaven and earth. Heaven and earth are boundless. Why should man's nature be dissimilar? When it is generous and unconstrained, joy and anger cannot hamper it, and it remains unaffected by externals.
