All the fish needs is to get lost in the water. All man needs is to get lost in Tao.Chuang Tzu
Heaven is like an egg, and the earth is like the yolk of the egg.
Chuang Tzu
When an archer is shooting for nothing, he has all his skill. If he shoots for a brass buckle, he is already nervous. If he shoots for a prize of gold, he goes blind or sees two targets He is out of his mind His skill has not changed. But the prize divides him. He cares. He thinks more of winning than of shooting And the need to win drains him of power.
Chuang Tzu
Those that think that wealth is the proper thing for them cannot give up their revenues those that seek distinction cannot give up the thought of fame those that cleave to power cannot give the handle of it to others. While they hold their grasp of those things, they are afraid of losing them. When they let them go, they are grieved and they will not look at a single example, from which they might perceive the folly of their restless pursuits such men are under the doom of heaven.
Chuang Tzu
There is nothing under the canopy of heaven greater than the tip of a bird's down in autumn, while the T'ai Mountain is small. Neither is there any longer life than that of a child cut off in infancy, while P'eng Tsu himself died young. The universe and I came into being together I and everything therein are One.
Chuang Tzu
Paraphrased When Chuang Tzu was about to die, his disciples began planning a splendid funeral. However some disciples expressed concern that given a particular arrangement, birds and kites would eat his remains. Chuang Tzu replied, 'Well, above ground I shall be eaten by crows and kites, below it by ants and worms. What do you have against birds'
