The new life created by the final integration is self-aware yet without ego, capable of inhabiting a body yet not attached to it, and guided by wisdom rather than emotion. Whole and virtuous, it can never die.

More quotes by Laozi
The best soldier does not attack. The superior fighter succeeds without violence. The greatest conqueror wins without struggle. The most successful manager leads without dictating. This is intelligent non aggressiveness.
Laozi
Open yourself to the truth, then trust in your natural responses, and everything will fall into place.
Laozi
The supreme rulers are hardly known by their subjects. The lesser are loved and praised. The even lesser are feared. The least are despised.
Laozi
I am wearied, as if I lacked a home to go to.

Laozi
The wise stand out because they see themselves as part of the Whole. They shine because they don't want to impress. They achieve great things because they don't look for recognition. Their wisdom is contained in what they are, not their opinions. They refuse to argue, so no-one argues with them.
Laozi
Because clarity and enlightenment are within your own nature, they are regained without moving an inch.
Laozi

Laozi
Failure is the foundation of success: success is the lurking place of failure.
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
Observe how endings become beginnings.
Laozi
What should be shrunken must first be stretched.
Laozi
Going forward seems like retreat.
Laozi
I have the mind of a fool, understanding nothing.
Laozi
ALL things in Nature work silently. They come into being and possess nothing. They fulfil their functions and make no claim.
Laozi
Knowing others is wisdom Knowing the self is enlightenment Mastering others requires force Mastering the self needs strength.
Laozi
