Everything will settle in its own place automatically.
The great Way is very straight, but people prefer to deviate.
Stop trying to control. Let go of fixed plans and concepts, and the world will govern itself.
Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity.
The fish cannot leave the deep waters. The state's weaponry should not be displayed.
Love the whole world as if it were your self; then you will truly care for all things.
