More quotes by Laozi
The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.
Laozi
Learn from the people. Plan with the people. Begin with what they have. Build on what they know.
Laozi
From now back to antiquity, its (Tao's) name has not been lost. Thereby, see the origin of all.
Laozi
If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. If you let me experience, I will learn!
Laozi
Governing a large country is like frying a small fish. You spoil it with too much poking.
Laozi
There is something obscure which is complete before heaven and earth arose tranquil, quiet, standing alone without change, moving without peril. It could be the mother of everything. Not knowing its name, I call it Tao.
Laozi
Do not look only at yourself, and you will see much. Do not justify yourself, and you will be distinguished. Do not brag, and you will have merit. Do not be prideful, and your work will endure.
Laozi
A great country needs more people to serve it. A small country needs more people to serve. So, if both shall get what they need, the great country ought to yield.
Laozi
Those who have compassion when they do battle will be victorious. Those who likewise defend themselves will be safe. Heaven will rescue and protect them with compassion.

Laozi
The reason for great distress is the body. Without it, what distress could there be?
Laozi
Creating without claiming, Doing without taking credit, Guiding without interfering, This is Primal Virtue.
Laozi
Sincere words are not fine fine words are not sincere. Those who are skilled (in the Tao) do not dispute (about it) the disputatious are not skilled in it. Those who know (the Tao) are not extensively learned the extensively learned do not know it.
Laozi
Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.
Laozi
A violent wind does not last for a whole morning.
Laozi
The soft and weak can overcome the hard and strong.
Laozi
The more prohibitions you have, the less virtuous people will be. The more weapons you have, the less secure people will be. The more subsidies you have, the less self reliant people will be.
Laozi
The nameless is the beginning of Heaven and Earth. The named is the mother of all things.
Laozi
If one desires to receive one must first give. This is called profound understanding.
Laozi
Abandon learning and there will be no sorrow.
Laozi
