As long as we have hope, we have direction, the energy to move, and the map to move by. We have a hundred alternatives, a thousand paths and an infinity of dreams. Hopeful, we are halfway to where we want to go hopeless, we are lost forever.
Laozi
When the palace is magnificent, the fields are filled with weeds, and the granaries are empty.
Laozi
. . . These are notions of the mind, which is like a knife, always chipping away at the Tao, trying to render it graspable and manageable. But that which is beyond form is ungraspable, and that which is beyond knowing is unmanageable. There is, however, this consolation: She who lets go of the knife will find the Tao at her fingertips.
Laozi
If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. If you let me experience, I will learn!
Laozi
When nothing is done, nothing is left undone.
Laozi
Supreme good is like water. Water greatly benefits all things, without conflict. It flows through places that people loathe. Thereby it is close to the Way.
Laozi
The wise man looks back into the past, and does not grieve over what is far off, nor rejoice over what is near for he knows that time is without end.
Laozi
Filling all the way to the brim is not as good as halting in time.
Laozi
