Approach the universe with Tao, And evil will have no power. Not that evil is not powerful, But its power will not be used to harm others.
Be merciful, moderate, and modest.
The more sharp weapons people have in a country, the bigger the disorder will be.
If you are untrustworthy, people will not trust you.
People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.
The brittle is easy to shatter.
