Forcing Quotes

“The greatest power requires the gentlest touch. If you have to intervene or force yourself on someone else, then what that's actually an indication of is that you don't actually believe in your own power. Because if you believed in your own power - if you knew you were powerful enough to create the reality that you prefer - why would you need in any way shape or form to interfere with anyone else's process?”

“Rushing into action, you fail. Trying to grasp things, you lose them. Forcing a project to completion, you ruin what was almost ripe. Therefore the Master takes action by letting things take their course. He remains as calm at the end as at the beginning. He has nothing, thus has nothing to lose. What he desires is non-desire; what he learns is to unlearn. He simply reminds people of who they have always been. He cares about nothing but the Tao. Thus he can care for all things.”

“Forcing things merely because of attachments or external pressures can lead to a delicate balance between persistence and futility. The moment you find yourself forcing a situation solely because of attachments or the involvement of others, it may be time to reevaluate your path. Sometimes, we push situations beyond their natural rhythm, motivated by attachments or external expectations, inadvertently straying from our authentic path.”

“I wonder how Japan's futuristic robot doctors will treat the worst and most widespread disease humanity already has - artificially lowered IQ. Making people stupider makes them buy more stuff – so “How many robots can you afford?” will be the big question of one of the following decades, unless we go back to Communism and produce everything for the sake of it, for free.”
