More quotes by Zhuangzi
Rewards and punishments are the lowest form of education.
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
Sound intelligence promises victory in every battle.
Zhuangzi
We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.
Zhuangzi
He who knows the activities of Nature lives according to Nature.
Zhuangzi
And how do I know that the hate of death is not like a man who has lost his home when young and does not know where his home is to return to?
Zhuangzi
There may be difficulty at the moment, but I will not lose the Virtue that I possess. It is when the ice and snow are on them that we see the strength of the cypress and the pine. I am grateful for this trouble around me, because it gives me an opportunity to realize how fortunate I am.
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.
Zhuangzi
The creature born is the creature dying.
Zhuangzi
The saying goes, 'The sage rests, truly rests and is at ease.' This manifests itself in calmness and detachment, so that worries and distress cannot affect him, nothing unpleasant can disturb him, his Virtue is complete and his spirit is not stirred up.
Zhuangzi
Verily God does not reward man for what he does, but for what he is.
Zhuangzi
That knowledge which stops at what it does not know, is the highest knowledge.
Zhuangzi
The whole world is incapable of judging either right or wrong. but it is certain that actionless action can judge both right and wrong.
Zhuangzi
Heaven does without doing through its purity, Earth does without doing through its calmness.
Zhuangzi
All men know the use of the useful, but nobody knows the use of the useless. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so that I can have a word with him?
Zhuangzi
The Tao is in all things, in their divisions and their fullness. What I dislike about divisions is that they multiply, and what i dislike about multiplication is that it makes people want to hold fast to it. So people go out and forget to return, seeing little more than ghosts.
Zhuangzi
Who knows when the end is reached? Death may be the beginning of life. How do I know that love of life is not a delusion after all? How do I know that he who dreads to die is as a child who has lost the way and cannot find his way home? How do I know that the dead repent of having previously clung to life?
Zhuangzi
Fish live in water. Men die in it.Nature is diverse, and not all tastes are the same.
Zhuangzi
The men of old breathed clear down to their heels.
Zhuangzi
The true man breathes with his heels.
Zhuangzi
