In the world there is nothing more submissive and weak than water. Yet for attacking that which is hard and strong nothing can surpass it.
More Quotes from Lao Tzu:
Abandon fancy theologies and imaginary ideas and do some ordinary daily work... Engage in this work with unswerving kindness and unending patience.Lao Tzu
There are two paths leading to oneness with the Tao. The first in the path of acceptance. Affirm everyone and everything. Freely extend you goodwill and virtue in every direction, regardless of circumstances. Embrace all things as part of the Harmonious Oneness, and then you will begin to perceive it. The second path is that of denial. Recognize that everything you see and think is a falsehood, an illusion, a veil over the truth. Peel all the veils away, and you will arrive at the Oneness. Though these paths are entirely different, they will deliver you to the same place spontaneous awareness of the Great Oneness.
Lao Tzu
