"He who is great must make humility..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“The reality of the building does not consist in the roof and walls, but in the space within to be lived in.”

“A sage is skilled at helping people without excluding anyone.”

“If you practice inaction, nothing will be left undone: For the way to acquire lordship over society is by invariably not interfering.”

“The ground's generosity takes in our compost and grows beauty! Try to be more like the ground.”

“It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am.”

“People that seem so glorious are all show; underneath they are like everyone else.”

“Women have plenty of roles in which they can serve with distinction: some of us even run countries. But generally we are better at wielding the handbag than the bayonet.”

“A prince must not have any other object nor any other thought… but war, its institutions, and its discipline; because that is the only art befitting one who commands.”

“One reason--perhaps the chief--of the virility of the Roosevelts is [their] very democratic spirit. They have never felt that because they were born in a good position they could put their hands in their pockets and succeed. They have felt, rather, that being born in a good position, there is no excuse for them if they did not do their duty by the community.”
