I see you selected one from The Wise Man, Peccant.
Mine is from The Fool.

By oneself the evil is done, by oneself one suffers; by oneself evil is left undone, by oneself one is purified. Purity and impurity belong to oneself, no one can purify another.

I like the way that they make it clear that you are responsible for your own actions and their consequences and not a helpless victim of the whims of a mysterious divine being.
