"Knowing honor, but clinging to disgrace, you..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“As soon as you have made a thought, laugh at it.”

“Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.”

“Some have lavish garments, carry sharp swords, and feast on food and drink. They possess more than they can spend. This is called the vanity of robbers. It is certainly not the Way.”

“The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust.”

“A man is never so proud as when striking an attitude of humility.”

“These possessions of a simpleton being the three I choose and cherish: to care, to be fair, to be humble.”

“Allow yourself to trust joy and embrace it. You will find you dance with everything.”

“I don’t understand anything...and I no longer want to understand anything. I want to stick to the fact...If I wanted to understand something, I would immediately have to betray the fact, but I’ve made up my mind to stick to the fact.”

“Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour.”
