Lao Tzu

"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be."

"In the end,The treasure of life is missed by those who hold on and gained by those who let go."

"In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present."

"A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving."

"Because of a great love, one is courageous."

"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 insidethat holds whatever we want. We hammer wood for a house, but it is the inner spacethat makes it livable. We work with being, but non-being is what we use."

"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage."
