Additional quotes by Yamamoto Tsunetomo
Nors nevalia leisti kitiems vadovauti, būti vaidingam, neišauklėtam ar pernelyg nuolankiam, tačiau jeigu žmogus padeda kitiems ir bendrauja su senais pažįstamais itin mandagiai, tarsi sutikęs pirmą kartą, jis su visais sutars puikiai. Vyro ir žmonos santykiai irgi grindžiami šiuo principu. Jeigu pabaigoje vyras taip pat protingas, kaip ir pradžioje, tai jis su žmona taip pat sutars puikiai.
