More quotes by Zhuangzi
Good fortune is as light as a feather, but nobody knows how to pick it up. Misfortune is as heavy as earth, but nobody knows how to stay out of it's way.
Zhuangzi
If there is existence, there must be non-existence. And if there was a time when nothing existed, there must have been a time before that - when even nothing did not exist.

Zhuangzi
When people do not ignore what they should ignore, but ignore what they should not ignore, this is known as ignorance.
Zhuangzi
The tao is made because we walk it,things become what they are called.
Zhuangzi

Zhuangzi
Men of this world all rejoice in others being like themselves, and object to others not being like themselves.
Zhuangzi
The hundred parts of the body are all complete in their places. Which should one prefer? Do you like them all equally? Are they all servants? Are they unable to control one another and need a ruler? Or do they become rulers and servants in turn? Is there any true ruler other than themselves?
Zhuangzi
Tao is beyond words and beyond things. It is not expressed either in word or in silence. Where there is no longer word or silence Tao is apprehended.
Zhuangzi
The sage embraces things. Ordinary men discriminate amongst them and parade their discriminations before others. So I say those who discriminate, fail to see.
