More quotes by Zhuangzi

Zhuangzi

Zhuangzi

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
The little child learns to speak, though it has no learned teachers - because it lives with those who know how to speak.
Zhuangzi

Zhuangzi
The raven hatches its young the fish spew forth their eggs the slim-waisted wasp transforms, and when a younger brother comes along the elder brother weeps. For too long I have not been able to work in harmony with these changes. So, given that I did not play my part in harmony with others, how could I expect to change people?
Zhuangzi
You cannot speak of ocean to a well-frog, the creature of a narrower sphere. You cannot speak of ice to a summer insect, the creature of a season.
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
