The ten thousand things flourish and then each returns to the root from which it came. Returning to the root is stillness. Through stillness each fulfils its destiny.
You should rule a great country As you would fry a small fish- With the least turning.
Strong winds do not last all morning, hard rains do not last all day.
Who has excess and supplies the world? Only the one who follows the Way.
It is because every one tinder Heaven recognizes beauty as beauty that the idea of ugliness exists.
Remember: if you can cease all restless activity, your integral nature will appear.
