More quotes by Laozi
He who is attached to things will suffer much.
Laozi
The more laws and order are made prominent, the more thieves and robbers there will be.
Laozi

Laozi
Man, when living, is soft and tender when dead, he is hard and tough. All animals and plants when living are tender and delicate when dead they become withered and dry. Therefore it is said: the hard and tough are parts of death the soft and tender are parts of life.
Laozi
The wise cares about everyone, and he becomes an example to all.

Laozi
Kindness in thought leads to wisdom. Kindness in speech leads to eloquence. Kindness in action leads to love.

To rejoice in conquest is to rejoice in murder.
Laozi
Heaven's Way gives no favors. It always remains with good people.
Laozi
The sage does not act and therefore does not fail, does not seize and therefore does not lose.
