Author of quotes: Lao Tzu. Page 2

There is no affliction worse ignorance meet.

Who, knowing the boundaries of its activities, is not close to danger, he will live long.

Knowing people it is reasonable, and knows himself a visionary.

Who, taking the matter quickly in a hurry to achieve a result that will not do anything. Who carefully finishes his job, as he began, he will not fail.

Contentment himself - rich.

Easy accord is not credible.

Worthy husband always tries to be impartial, not to make value difficult things and not to listen to barren exercises.

Be calm, relaxed and generous is the cure.

So Wise is going to be an example, not imposing his will. He pointed but not piercing. It is straightforward, but flexible. He shines, but does not hurt the eyes.

I can always rise above insulted me, forgiving them.

If you want to become whole, let yourself be divided into parts.
If you want to become full let yourself be empty.
If you want to get everything - let it all go.

No sin is heavier than passions.

The victory over the other gives strength, victory over a - fearlessness.

Man at his birth is tender and weak, and in case of death, solid and sturdy. All creatures and plants at his birth is tender and weak, and when death is dry and rotten. Solid and sturdy is what dies while the tender and weak is what begins to live. Therefore, a powerful army wins and strong the tree is dying. The strong and powerful does not have the same benefits, which are delicate and weak.
