Be truly whole, and all things will return to you.
Try to change it and you will ruin it. Try to hold it and you will lose it.
The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.
You should rule a great country As you would fry a small fish- With the least turning.
When bitter enemies make peace, surely some bitterness remains.
To be constantly without desire is the way to have a vision of the mystery of heaven and earth. For constantly to have desire is the means by which their limitations are seen.
