"In the Universe the difficult things are..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“The difficult problems in life always start off being simple. Great affairs always start off being small.”

“Can you care for the people and rule the country and not be cunning?”

“To know yet to think that one does not know is best; Not to know yet to think that one knows will lead to difficulty.”

“The sage acts by doing nothing.”

“How can a man's life keep it's course If he will not let it flow, Those who flow as life flows know They need no other force: They feel no wear, they feel no tear, They need no mending, no repair.”

“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”

“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. So many look to eradicate fear from their lives, when that is an impossible task. You can certainly experience moments in absence of fear, however accept that fear will be with you whenever you are in the process of living creatively. The challenge is to go ahead regardless, simply notice the feeling and manage being courageous.”

“Writing is like anything else - the more you do it, the better you get at it, the easier it comes, and the less concerned you'll be about what's going to happen to it, where it's going, what it sounds like, whether it's right.”

“The best fighter is never angry.”
