More quotes by Laozi
On the one hand, loss implies gain on the other hand, gain implies loss.
Laozi
Stop thinking, and end your problems. What difference between yes and no? What difference between success and failure? Must you value what others value, avoid what others avoid? How ridiculous!
Laozi
If you go searching for the Great Creator, you will come back empty-handed. The source of the universe is ultimately unknowable, a great invisible river flowing forever through a vast and fertile valley. Silent and uncreated, it creates all things.
Laozi
If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. If you let me experience, I will learn!
Laozi
He does not feel pity for himself - thus he can successfully develop.

Laozi
All things of the world are born of being being is born of nonbeing.
Laozi
Favor and disgrace are like fear. Favor is in a higher place, and disgrace in a lower place. When you win them you are like being in fear, and when you lose them you are also like being in fear. So favor and disgrace are like fear.
Laozi
Stop thinking, and end your problems.
Laozi
We desire to understand the world by giving names to the things we see, but these things are only the effects of something subtle.
Laozi
When the emperor is crowned or the three dukes are appointed, rather than sending a gift of jade carried by four horses, remain still and offer the Way.
Laozi

Laozi

Laozi
When you stand with your two feet on the ground, you will always keep your balance.
Laozi
The Master's power is like this. He lets all things come and go effortlessly, without desire. He never expects results thus he is never disappointed. He is never disappointed thus his spirit never grows old.
Laozi
When goodness is lost, it is replaced by morality.
Laozi
Prepare for the difficult while it is still easy. Deal with the big while it is still small. Difficult undertakings have always started with what easy. Great undertakings always started with what is small. Therefore the sage never strives for the great,And thereby the great is achieved.
Laozi
The tree which fills the arms grew from the tiniest sprout.
Laozi
To realize that our knowledge is ignorance, This is a noble insight. To regard our ignorance as knowledge, This is mental sickness. Only when we are sick of the sickness Shall we cease to be sick. The Sage is not sick, being sick of sickness This is the secret of health.
Laozi
