More quotes by Laozi
At the center of your being you have the answer you know who you are and you know what you want.
Laozi
Stay at the center and let all things take their course.
Laozi
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
Laozi
The more sharp weapons people have in a country, the bigger the disorder will be.
Laozi
You should rule a great country As you would fry a small fish- With the least turning.
Laozi
The best leaders are those their people hardly know exist. The next best is a leader who is loved and praised. Next comes the one who is feared. The worst one is the leader that is despised ... The best leaders value their words, and use them sparingly. When they have accomplished their task, the people say, Amazing! We did it, all by ourselves!
Laozi
My words are easy to understand and easy to perform, Yet no man under heaven knows them or practices them.
Laozi
The Way of Tao is this: It strives not, but conquers It speaks not, but all is made clear It summons not, but its house is crowded It contrives not, but the design is perfect.
Laozi
So sometimes things are ahead and sometimes they are behind Sometimes breathing is hard, sometimes it comes easily Sometimes there is strength and sometimes weakness Sometimes one is up and sometimes down. Therefore the sage avoids extremes, excesses, and complacency.
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
True words are not pleasing. Pleasing words are not true.
Laozi
If you realize that you have enough, you are truly rich.
Laozi
As for the proper way: it is the beginning of disorder.
Laozi
Water does not force its way.
Laozi
When you stand with your two feet on the ground, you will always keep your balance.
Laozi
Those who know others are intelligent Those who know themselves have insight. Those who master others have force Those who master themselves have strength.Those who know what is enough are wealthy. Those who persevere have direction. Those who maintain their position endure. And those who die and yet do not perish, live on.
Laozi
If you close your mind in judgements and traffic with desires, your heart will be troubled. If you keep your mind from judging and aren't led by the senses, your heart will find peace.
Laozi
I am wearied, as if I lacked a home to go to.
Laozi
What resists, persists.
Laozi
Those who are quiet value the words. When their task is completed, people will say: We did it ourselves.
Laozi
