“Colours blind the eye. Sounds deafen the ear. Flavours numb the taste. Thoughts weaken the mind. Desires wither the heart. The Master observes the world but trusts his inner vision. He allows things to come and go. His heart is open to the sky.” WayWisdomDesireTaoismModerationTao Te ChingDaoism Book:Tao Te Ching Source: Tao Te Ching
“The more laws and restrictions there are, The poorer people become. The sharper men's weapons, The more trouble in the land. The more ingenious and clever men are, The more strange things happen. The more rules and regulations, The more thieves and robbers.” WayWisdomGovernmentLawPeaceTroubleThievesRulesGovern Book:Tao Te Ching Source: Tao Te Ching
