Chapter 58
IndexIn governing people and serving heaven, there is nothing better than frugality.
Only through frugality can one submit early; early submission leads to accumulating virtue; accumulating virtue leads to overcoming all; when one can overcome all, one knows no limits; knowing no limits, one can possess a country; when one possesses the mother of a country, one can long endure. This is called having deep roots and a firm foundation, the way of long life and lasting vision.
