Hold on to the great image, and the whole world follows, follows unharmed, content and completely at peace.

The soft and weak can overcome the hard and strong.

Those who are unswerving have resolve

When the great Tao is abandoned, benevolence and righteousness arise.

To know and not to do is not yet to know.

When two opposing sides meet in battle, the one without an enemy will be victorious.

Correct becomes defect. Good becomes ominous. People's delusions have certainly lasted long.
