Silence is a source of great strenght.

See simplicity in the complicated. Achieve greatness in little things

People take death lightly. They expect too much of life. That is why people take death lightly.

True power is stillness within motion.

The wise man, after learning something new, is afraid to learn anything more until he has put his first lesson into practice.

Nothing in the world is as soft and yielding as water. Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible, nothing can surpass it. The soft overcomes the hard; the gentle overcomes the rigid. Everyone knows this is true, but few can put it into practice. Therefore the Master remains serene in the midst of sorrow. Evil cannot enter his heart. Because he has given up helping, he is people's greatest help. True words seem paradoxical.

Hold on to the ancient Way to master the present, and to learn the distant beginning.
