More quotes by Laozi
When the Way is lost there is virtue. When virtue is lost there is benevolence. When benevolence is lost there is righteousness. When righteousness is lost there are rituals.
Laozi

Laozi
The more laws that are written, the more criminals are produced.
Laozi
Heaven's net is very vast. It is sparsely meshed, yet nothing slips through.

Laozi
Water does not force its way.
Laozi
If you see what is small as it sees itself, and accept what is weak for what strength it has, and use what is dim for the light it gives then all will go well. This is called Acting Naturally.
Laozi
Keep behind, and you shall be put in front keep out, and you shall be kept in.
Laozi
If you are untrustworthy, people will not trust you.
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
