Loss is not as bad as wanting more.

The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.

Without opening your door, you can open your heart to the world. Without looking out your window, you can see the essence of the Tao. The more you know, the less you understand. The Master arrives without leaving, sees the light without looking, achieves without doing a thing.

Lessen selfishness and restrain desires.

A violent wind does not outlast the morning; a squall of rain does not outlast the day. Such is the course of Nature. And if Nature herself cannot sustain her efforts long, how much less can man!

Leadership is your ability to hide your panic from others.

What the Way is to the world, the stream is to the river and the sea.
