Without desire there is stillness, and the world settles by itself.
Giving birth and nourishing, Bearing yet not possessing, Working yet not taking credit, Leading yet not dominating, This is the Primal Virtue.
The Tao's principle is spontaneity.
The usefulness of a pot comes from its emptiness.
The softest of stuff in the world, penetrates quickly the hardest, insubstantial, it enters where there is no room.
The greatest revelation is stillness.
