Zhuge Oracle Lesson 220

Oracle Text

First bar and lock the door,
then keep up your guard;
heed not the small things to beware,
and drifting on, they grow to great calamity.

Interpretation

A small thing lost loses the great. Fear not the ten thousand times all goes well, but the one time it doesn't; a single spark, too, can set the plain ablaze.
