When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you.
From Lao Tzu
Man's enemies are not demons, but human beings like himself.
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name. The Nameless is the origin of Heaven and Earth; the Named is the mother of all things.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.
Music in the soul can be heard by the universe.
He who knows, does not speak. He who speaks, does not know.
The wicked leader is he who the people despise. The good leader is he who the people revere. The great leader is he who the people say, 'We did it ourselves.'
