Lao Tzu (Laozi)Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment. Silence is a source of great strength. Simulated disorder postulates perfect discipline; simulated fear postulates courage; simulated weakness postulates strength. The career of a sage is of two kinds: He is either honored by all in the world, Like a flower waving its head, Or else he disappears into the silent forest. The higher the sun ariseth, the less shadow doth he cast; even so the greater is the goodness, the less doth it covet praise; yet cannot avoid its rewards in honours. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness. The more laws and order are made prominent, the more thieves and robbers there will be. The people are hungry: It is because those in authority eat up too much in taxes. The power of intuitive understanding will protect you from harm until the end of your days. |
