To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.
Lao Tzu
Treat those who are good with goodness, and also treat those who are not good with goodness. Thus goodness is attained. Be honest to those who are honest, and be also honest to those who are not honest. Thus honesty is attained.
Lao Tzu
Truthful words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not truthful. Good words are not persuasive; persuasive words are not good.
Lao Tzu
Violence, even well intentioned, always rebounds upon oneself.
Lao Tzu
When a nation is filled with strife, then do patriots flourish.
Lao Tzu
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
Lao Tzu
When the best leader's work is done the people say, "We did it ourselves."
Lao Tzu
When virtue is lost, benevolence appears, when benevolence is lost right conduct appears, when right conduct is lost, expedience appears. Expediency is the mere shadow of right and truth; it is the beginning of disorder.
Lao Tzu
When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you.
Lao Tzu
Without stirring abroad, One can know the whole world; Without looking out of the window One can see the way of heaven. The further one goes The less one knows.
Lao Tzu
