Daily quote |
Lao Tzu (Laozi)The sage does not hoard. The more he helps others, the more he benefits himself, The more he gives to others, the more he gets himself. The Way of Heaven does one good but never does one harm. The Way of the sage is to act but not to compete. The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself. The softest things in the world overcome the hardest things in the world. The wicked leader is he who the people despise. The good leader is he who the people revere. The great leader is he who the people say, 'We did it ourselves.' The wise man does not lay up his own treasures. The more he gives to others, the more he has for his own. The words of truth are always paradoxical. Those who have knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have knowledge. To know yet to think that one does not know is best; Not to know yet to think that one knows will lead to difficulty. To lead people walk behind them. To realize that you do not understand is a virtue; Not to realize that you do not understand is a defect. |
