More quotes by Zhuangzi
Those who realise their folly are not true fools.
Zhuangzi
Compare birth with death, compare death with life compare what is possible with what is not possible and compare what is not possible with what is possible because there is, there is not, and because there is not, there is.
Zhuangzi
The men of old breathed clear down to their heels.
Zhuangzi
The greatest tragedy that can befall a person is the atrophy of his mind.
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
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
When people do not ignore what they should ignore, but ignore what they should not ignore, this is known as ignorance.
Zhuangzi
We are born from a quiet sleep, and we die to a calm awakening
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
Listening stops with the ears, the mind stops with recognition, but spirit is empty and waits on all things.
Zhuangzi
Transmit the established facts do not transmit words of exaggeration. If you do that, you will probably come out all right.
Zhuangzi
Horses have hoofs to carry them over frost and snow hair, to protect them from wind and cold. They eat grass and drink water, and fling up their heels.... Such is the real nature of horses.
Zhuangzi
Where is that man who has forgotten words that I may have a word with him?
Zhuangzi
When there is no more separation between 'this' and 'that,' it is called the still-point of the Tao. At the still point in the center of the circle one can see the infinite in all things.
Zhuangzi
So if loss of what gives happiness causes you distress when it fades, you can now understand that such happiness is worthless. It is said, those who lose themselves in their desire for things also lose their innate nature by being vulgar.
Zhuangzi
Easy is right. Begin right and you are easy. Continue easy and you are right. The right way to go easy is to forget the right way, and forget that the going is easy.
Zhuangzi
There is no bandit so powerful as Nature. The interaction of the positive and the negative principles, which produces the visible universe. In the whole universe there is no escape from it.
Zhuangzi
Men of this world all rejoice in others being like themselves, and object to others not being like themselves.
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
When you are identified with the One, all things will be complete to you.
Zhuangzi
