The sage does not hoard. The more he helps others, the more he benefits himself, The more he gives to others, the more he gets himself. The Way of Heaven does one good but never does one harm. The Way of the sage is to act but not to compete.

Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.

Mastering others is strength. Mastering oneself makes you fearless.

Seeing the small is called clarity.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

The Tao is unpredictable to those that live according to plans. Only those who have no agenda are in harmony with the Tao.

If you close your mind in judgements and traffic with desires, your heart will be troubled. If you keep your mind from judging and aren't led by the senses, your heart will find peace.
