"A foolish man is always doing, Yet..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“Nature doesn't make long speeches.”

“Praise of power leads to weakness; Love of things leads to loss; The wise one leads by filling people's hearts; He destroys illusion and disturbs those who believe they are wise; He does nothing yet everything happens.”

“The wise man is one who knows what he does not know.”

“Old fools are greater fools than young ones.”

“The fool is not the man who merely does foolish things. The fool is the man who does not know enough to cash in on his foolishness.”

“Thus may poor fools Belive false teachers.”

“Work while others are wishing.”

“The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.”

“Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring. Any absorbing passion has the effect to deliver from the little coils and cares of every day: 'tis the heat which sets our human atoms spinning, overcomes the friction of crossing thresholds, and first addresses in society, and gives us a good start and speed, easy to continue, when once it is begun.”
