Aroha whakatō, aroha puta mai - When we plant aroha, aroha is produced.
Tama noho, tama mate, tama tū, tama ora - One who remains seated becomes stagnant and full of ailment but the one who stands and is active and present lives well and thrives.
Inā e mohio ana koe ko wai koe, i anga mai koe i hea, kei te mohio koe, kei te anga atu ki hea - If you know who you are and where you have been, then you will know where you are going.
Kotahi te kōhao o te ngira e kuhuna ai te miro mā, te miro pango, te miro whero - "There is but one eye of the needle, through which white, black and red cotton may pass." (Pōtatau Te Wherowhero, a Waikato Chief and the first Māori King)
