More quotes by Zhuangzi
Do not struggle. Go with the flow of things, and you will find yourself at one with the mysterious unity of the Universe.
Zhuangzi
Let everything be allowed to do what it naturally does, so that its nature will be satisfied.
Zhuangzi
The sound of water says what I think.
Zhuangzi
All existing things are really one. We regard those that are beautiful and rare as valuable, and those that are ugly as foul and rotten. The foul and rotten may come to be transformed into what is rare and valuable, and the rare and valuable into what is foul and rotten.
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
Men do not mirror themselves in running water - they mirror themselves in still water. Only what is still can still the stillness of other things.
Zhuangzi
Never admire a man by his strength judge him in how he uses it- A way is made by walking it
Zhuangzi
Either in conflict with others or in harmony with them, we go through life like a runaway horse, unable to stop.
Zhuangzi
I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.
Zhuangzi
Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature.
Zhuangzi
He who regards all things as one is a companion of Nature.
Zhuangzi
Although things seem to be sometimes going up and sometimes descending, sometimes slipping away, nevertheless there is a reality, the same today as in the past. It does not change, for nothing can affect it. Could we not say it is one great harmony? So why shouldn't we ask about it.
Zhuangzi
The World is Large - Its beauty indescrible.
Zhuangzi
If you have insight, you use your inner eye, your inner ear, to pierce to the heart of things, and have no need of intellectual knowledge.
Zhuangzi
When the shoe fits, the foot is forgotten. When the belt fits, the belly is forgotten. When the heart is right, for and against are forgotten. No drives, no compulsions, no needs, no attractions: Then your affairs are under control. You are a free man.
Zhuangzi
If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind.
Zhuangzi
Cherish that which is in you and shut out that which is without, for much knowledge is a curse.
Zhuangzi
He who knows the activities of Nature lives according to Nature.
Zhuangzi
Life is finite, While knowledge is infinite.
Zhuangzi
The tao is made because we walk it,things become what they are called.
Zhuangzi
