More quotes by Zhuangzi
How do I know that loving life is not a delusion? How do I know that in hating death I am not like a man who, having left home in his youth, has forgotten the way back?
Zhuangzi
Compare birth with death, compare death with life compare what is possible with what is not possible and compare what is not possible with what is possible because there is, there is not, and because there is not, there is.
Zhuangzi
The men of old breathed clear down to their heels.
Zhuangzi
That knowledge which stops at what it does not know, is the highest knowledge.
Zhuangzi
Look at this window: it is nothing but a hole in the wall, but because of it the whole room is full of light. So when the faculties are empty, the heart is full of light.
Zhuangzi
Yet the stupid believe they are awake, busily and brightly assuming they understand things, calling this man ruler, that one herdsman – how dense! Confucius and you are both dreaming! And when I say you are dreaming, I am dreaming, too. Words like these will be labeled the Supreme Swindle.
Zhuangzi
Either in conflict with others or in harmony with them, we go through life like a runaway horse, unable to stop.
Zhuangzi
'I shall have heaven and earth for my coffin and its shell the sun and moon for my two round symbols of jade, the stars and constellations for my pearls and jewels and all things assisting as the mourners. Will not the provisions for my funeral be complete? What could you add to them?'
Zhuangzi
A petty thief is put in jail. A great brigand becomes a ruler of a Nation.
Zhuangzi
He who knows the activities of Nature lives according to Nature.
Zhuangzi
Can a man cling to the positive without any negative in contrast to which it is seen to be positive? If he claims to do so he is a rouge or a madman.
Zhuangzi
Make your will one! Don't listen with your ears, listen with your mind. No, don't listen with your mind, but listen with your spirit. Listening stops with the ears, the mind stops with recognition, but spirit is empty- and waits on all things. The Way gathers in emptiness alone. Emptiness is the fasting of the mind.
Zhuangzi
Words exist because of meaning once you’ve gotten the meaning, you can forget the words.
Zhuangzi
When there is no more separation between 'this' and 'that,' it is called the still-point of the Tao. At the still point in the center of the circle one can see the infinite in all things.
Zhuangzi
All the fish needs is to get lost in the water. All man needs is to get lost in Tao.
Zhuangzi
Great understanding is broad and unhurried little understanding is cramped and busy
Zhuangzi
To be constant is to be useful. To be useful is to realize one's true nature. Realization of one's true nature is happiness. When one reaches happiness, one is close to perfection.
Zhuangzi
When you're dreaming, you don't know it's a dream. You might even interpret a dream in your dream - and then wake up and realize it was all a dream. Perhaps a great awakening will reveal this to be a dream as well.
Zhuangzi
If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind.
Zhuangzi
Great knowledge sees all in one. Small knowledge breaks down into the many.
