More quotes by 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
If the Way is made clear, it is not the Way.
Zhuangzi
To have a human form is a joyful thing.
Zhuangzi
The space under the sky is occupied by all things in their unity.
Zhuangzi
Do not seek fame. Do not make plans. Do not be absorbed by activities. Do not think that you know. Be aware of all that is and dwell in the infinite. Wander where there is no path. Be all that heaven gave you, but act as though you have received nothing. Be empty, that is all.
Zhuangzi
When people do not ignore what they should ignore, but ignore what they should not ignore, this is known as ignorance.
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
'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
Men of this world all rejoice in others being like themselves, and object to others not being like themselves.
Zhuangzi
The World is Large - Its beauty indescrible.
Zhuangzi
A man who knows he is a fool is not a great fool.
Zhuangzi
The true man of the past waited upon Heaven when dealing with people and did not wait upon people when dealing with Heaven.
Zhuangzi
Good order results spontaneously when things are let alone
Zhuangzi
Only the intelligent knows how to identify all things as one. . . . When one is at ease with himself, one is near Tao. This is to let Nature take its own course.
Zhuangzi
Life comes from the earth and life returns to the earth.
Zhuangzi
Are you and I perchance caught up in a dream from which we have not yet awakened?
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
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
Let your mind wander in simplicity, blend your spirit with the vastness, follow along with things the way they are, and make no room for personal views-then the world will be governed.
Zhuangzi
The Portal of God is nonexistence. All things sprang from nonexistence. Existence could not make existence existence. It must have proceeded from nonexistence, and nonexistence and nothing are one. Herein is the abiding place of the sage.
