"Filling all the way to the brim..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“If you tell me, I will listen. If you show me, I will see. If you let me experience, I will learn!”

“At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want.”

“Greed is costly. Assembled fortunes are lost.”

“Out of moderation a pure happiness springs.”

“I am a man who believes with all fervor and intensity in moderate progress. Too often men who believe in moderation believe in it only moderately and tepidly and leave fervor to the extremists of the two sides - the extremists of reaction and the extremists of progress. Washington, Lincoln . . . are men who, to my mind, stand as the types of what wide, progressive leadership should be.”

“Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity.”

“The cautious seldom err.”

“Avoid being seized by the police. The cops are not your friends. Don't tell them anything.”

“Hasty work and premature decisions may lead to penalties out of all proportion to the issues immediately involved.”
