Laozi
You should rule a great country As you would fry a small fish- With the least turning.

Laozi
Fine words are traded. Noble deeds gain respect. But people who are not good, why abandon them?
Laozi
Governing a large country is like frying a small fish. You spoil it with too much poking. Center your country in the Tao and evil will have no power. Not that it isn't there, but you'll be able to step out of its way. Give evil nothing to oppose and it will disappear by itself.
Laozi
He who walks on tip-toe does not walk on solid ground.
Laozi

Knowing the bright, but clinging to the dark, you become a model to the world.
Laozi
A tree that can fill the span of a man's arms grows from a downy tip A terrace nine stories high rises from level earth A journey of a thousand miles starts from beneath one's feet.
Laozi
A government can be compared to our lungs. Our lungs are best when we don't realize they are helping us breathe. It is when we are constantly aware of our lungs that we know they have come down with an illness.
Laozi
