Lao Tzu
“Only he who has power can give it to others.”
“Knowledge of harmony is called constancy. Knowledge of constancy is called wisdom. The enrichment of life is called happiness. Striving to control the senses is called perseverance.”
“He who knows how to stand firm cannot be overturned. He who knows how to lean, cannot be toppled.”
“The overcoming of the difficult begins with the easy, the realization of the great begins with the small, for in the world the difficult is formed from the easy, and the great from the small.”
“The Perfectly Wise One accumulates nothing. He does everything for people and gives everything to others.”
