"If you can find true contentment, it..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“What has no substance can penetrate what has no opening.”

“When the palace is magnificent, the fields are filled with weeds, and the granaries are empty.”

“The high must make the low its base.”

“To have enough of enough is always enough.”

“Like Paul Kraston said, all I ask in life is a water bed, a TV and a typewriter. Well, I'll just have an ordinary bed, a TV and a guitar.”

“It is better to desire the things we have than to have the things we desire.”

“For the good are always the merry, / Save by an evil chance,/ And the merry love the fiddle,/ And the merry love to dance: / And when the folk there spy me,/ They will all come up to me, / With,”Here is the fiddler of Dooney!” / And dance like a wave of the sea.”

“A well-spent day brings happy sleep.”

“Whatever woman may cast her lot with mine, should any ever do so, it is my intention to do all in my power to make her happy and contented; and there is nothing I can imagine that would make me more unhappy than to fail in the effort.”
