Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
LaoziWhen a country is in harmony with the Tao, the factories make trucks and tractors. When a country goes counter to the Tao, warheads are stockpiled outside the cities. There is no greater illusion than fear, no greater wrong than preparing to defend yourself, no greater misfortune than having an enemy. Whoever can see through all fear will always be safe.
Laozi
