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.'
Lao Tzu -
If the Great Way perishes there will morality and duty. When cleverness and knowledge arise great lies will flourish. When relatives fall out with one another there will be filial duty and love. When states are in confusion there will be faithful servants.
Lao Tzu
-
Those who have knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have knowledge.
Lao Tzu -
For the wise man looks into space and he knows there is no limited dimensions.
Lao Tzu -
He who walks on tip-toe does not walk on solid ground.
Lao Tzu -
The key to growth is the introduction of higher dimensions of consciousness into our awareness.
Lao Tzu -
Thirty spokes meet in the hub. Where a wheel isn't is where it's useful. Hollowed out, clay makes a pot. Where the pots not is where it's useful. Cut doors and windows to make a room. Where the room isn't, there's room for you. So the profit in what is, is in the use of what isn't.
Lao Tzu -
If you practice inaction, nothing will be left undone: For the way to acquire lordship over society is by invariably not interfering.
Lao Tzu
-
He who regards the world as he does the fortune of his own body can govern the world. He who loves the world as he does his own body can be entrusted with the world.
Lao Tzu -
From wonder into wonder existence opens.
Lao Tzu -
He who does not trust enough, Will not be trusted.
Lao Tzu -
The sage does not hoard. The more he helps others, the more he benefits himself, The more he gives to others, the more he gets himself. The Way of Heaven does one good but never does one harm. The Way of the sage is to act but not to compete.
Lao Tzu -
He who knows much about others may be learned, but he who understands himself is more intelligent. He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
Lao Tzu -
People in their handlings of affairs often fail when they are about to succeed. If one remains as careful at the end as he was at the beginning, there will be no failure.
Lao Tzu
-
I observe myself and I come to know others.
Lao Tzu -
If you go searching for the Great Creator, you will come back empty-handed. The source of the universe is ultimately unknowable, a great invisible river flowing forever through a vast and fertile valley. Silent and uncreated, it creates all things.
Lao Tzu -
Each new day is a blank page in the diary of your life. The secret of success is in turning that diary into the best story you possibly can. I wish you Happy New Year and diary full of best stories ever written in your life.
Lao Tzu -
The more we give to others, the more we are increased.
Lao Tzu -
Be the chief but never the lord.
Lao Tzu -
To realize that you do not understand is a virtue; Not to realize that you do not understand is a defect.
Lao Tzu
-
If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.
Lao Tzu -
The highest virtue seems as low as a valley.
Lao Tzu -
We put thirty spokes to make a wheel: But it is on the hole in the center that the use of the cart hinges. We make a vessel from a lump of clay; But it is the empty space within the vessel that makes it useful. We make doors and windows for a room; But it is the empty spaces that make the room livable. Thus, while existence has advantages, It is the emptiness that makes it useful.
Lao Tzu -
Truthful words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not truthful. Good words are not persuasive; persuasive words are not good.
