"My brother, the lucky person has only one virtue and no more: it will make it easier to cross the bridge. To possess many virtues is an honor, but it is also a difficult fate, and how many virtuous people have hid in the wilderness and ended their lives because they were tired of being a battlefield for the ceaseless battles of their virtues.
