"One's own self or material goods, which..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“The most powerful weapon known is the weapon of blessing. Therefore, a clever person relies on it. He wins with peace, not with war.”

“The most complete seems lacking. Yet in use it is not exhausted.”

“Governing a large country is like frying a small fish. You spoil it with too much poking.”

“Wealth, taste and leisure can bring many things but they do not bring happiness.”

“Imagine no possessions; I wonder if you can.”

“In accumulating property for ourselves or our posterity, in founding a family or a state, or acquiring fame even, we are mortal; but in dealing with truth we are immortal, and need fear no change nor accident.”

“You add value to people when you value them.”

“I honor health as the first Muse.”

“You will be as much value to others as you have been to yourself.”
