If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. If you let me experience, I will learn!
LaoziBecause of deep love, one is courageous. Because of frugality, one is generous. Because of not daring to be ahead of the world, one becomes the leader of the world.
LaoziI have three treasures that I cherish. The first is compassion. The second is moderation. The third is not claiming to be first in the world.
LaoziIf you overesteem great men, people become powerless. If you overvalue possessions, people begin to steal. The Master leads by emptying people's minds and filling their cores, by weakening their ambition and toughening their resolve. He helps people lose everything they know, everything they desire, and creates confusion in those who think that they know. Practice not-doing, and everything will fall into place.
Laozi
