Teo te ching

"There is no greater sin than desire." No curse is greater than dissatisfaction. There is no greater calamity than seeking something for oneself. He who knows that sufficiency is sufficient, always gets what is sufficient. "

"The weak can defeat the strong." Soft can beat hard. Everyone under heaven knows this, but no one does it. "

"Knowing others is wisdom. Self-knowledge is enlightenment. "
