More quotes by Laozi
Seal the openings, shut the doors, and until your last day you will not be exhausted. Widen the openings, interfere, and until your last day you will not be safe.
Laozi
The Tao gives birth to One. One gives birth to yin and yang. Yin and yang give birth to all things... The complete whole is the complete whole. So also is any part the complete whole... But forget about understanding and harmonizing and making all things one. The universe is already a harmonious oneness just realize it.
Laozi
A journey of a thousand miles starts in front of your feet. A tower nine stories high is built from a small heap of earth. A journey of a thousand miles starts in front of your feet.
Laozi
The good man is the teacher of the bad, And the bad is the material from which the good may learn. He who does not value the teacher, Or greatly care for the material, Is greatly deluded although he may be learned. Such is the essential mystery.
Laozi
Yet mystery and reality emerge from the same source.
Laozi
A good person is the bad person's teacher. A bad person is the good person's task.
Laozi
The softest things in the world overcome the hardest things in the world. Through this I know the advantage of taking no action.
Laozi
I have three treasures which I hold and keep. The first is mercy the second is economy. The third is daring not to be ahead of others. From mercy comes courage from economy comes generosity From humility comes leadership.
Laozi
Every step is on the path.
Laozi
By letting it go it all gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try. The world is beyond the winning.
Laozi
Worlds and particles, bodies and beings, time and space: All are transient expressions of the Tao.
Laozi
Be still like a mountain and flow like a great river.
Laozi
Countless words count less than the silent balance between yin and yang
Laozi
He who knows much about others may be learned, but he who understands himself is more intelligent. He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
Laozi
The truth often sounds paradoxical.
Laozi
. . . integral wisdom involves a direct participation in every moment: the observer and the observed are dissolved in the light of pure awareness, and no mental concepts or attitudes are present to dim that light.
Laozi
Attending fully and becoming supple, Can you be as a newborn babe?
Laozi
The one who is filled by virtue is like a newborn baby.
Laozi
The men who are great live with that which is substantial, they do not stay with that which is superficial they abide with realities, they do not remain with what is showy. The one they discard, the other they hold.
Laozi
The truth is not always beautiful, nor beautiful words the truth.
Laozi
