    Lao Tzu
    “Men are born soft and supple; dead they are stiff and hard. Plants are born tender and pliant; dead, they are brittle and dry. Thus whoever is stiff and inflexible is a disciple of death. Whoever is soft and yielding is a disciple of life. The hard and stiff will be broken. The soft and supple will prevail.”

    Lao Tzu
    “We join spokes together in a wheel,
    but it is the center hole
    that makes the wagon move.

    We shape clay into a pot,
    but it is the emptiness inside
    that holds whatever we want.

    We hammer wood for a house,
    but it is the inner space
    that makes it livable.

    We work with being,
    but non-being is what we use.”

    Lao Tzu
    “Love

    Embracing Tao, you become embraced.
    Supple, breathing gently, you become reborn.
    Clearing your vision, you become clear.
    Nurturing your beloved, you become impartial.
    Opening your heart, you become accepted.
    Accepting the World, you embrace Tao.
    Bearing and nurturing,
    Creating but not owning,
    Giving without demanding,
    Controlling without authority,
    This is love.”
    ― Laozi, The Teachings of Lao-Tzu: The Tao-Te Ching

    Lao Tzu
    “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.”

    Lao Tzu
    “Everything under heaven is a sacred vessel and cannot be controlled. Trying to control leads to ruin. Trying to grasp, we lose. Allow your life to unfold naturally. Know that it too is a vessel of perfection. Just as you breathe in and breathe out, there is a time for being ahead and a time for being behind; a time for being in motion and a time for being at rest; a time for being vigorous and a time for being exhausted; a time for being safe and a time for being in danger.”
