Why hast thou forsaken us?

[PuddinPop]

Even the finest warrior is defeated when he goes against natural law
By his own hand he is doomed and all creatures are likely to despise him

One who knows Tao never turns from life's calling
When at home he honors the side of rest
When at war he honors the side of action
Peace and tranquility are what he holds most dear
so he does not obtain weapons
But when their use is unavoidable he employs them with fortitude and zeal

Do not flaunt your excellence
Do not rejoice over victory I WENT TO IBBY'S FALAFEL BEFORE ANY OF YOU TROGLODYTES
With the loss of others weep with sorrow and grief
After winning a battle do not celebrate, observe the rites of a funeral

Verse 31

Verse 31
Tao Te Ching
Translated by Jonathan Star

[Kindelan]

Whoever relies on the Tao in governing men
doesn't try to force issues or defeat enemies by force of arms.
For every force there is a counterforce.
Violence, even well intentioned, always rebounds upon oneself.

The Master does his job and then stops.
He understands that the universe is forever out of control, and that trying to dominate events goes against the current of the Tao.
Because he believes in himself, he doesn't try to convince others.
Because he is content with himself, he doesn't need others' approval.
Because he accepts himself, the whole world accepts him.

Verse 30
Tao Te Ching
Translated by Stephen Mitchell

[Kindelan]

To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

[Kindelan]

Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly if they even roll a few more upon it.

Albert Schweitzer

[Kindelan]

Every human being has within him an ideal man, just as every piece of marble contains in a rough state a statue as beautiful as the one that Praxiteles the Greek made of the god Apollo.

Jose Marti

[Kindelan]

Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.

John Muir

[Kindelan]

The accomplice to the crime of corruption is frequently our own indifference.

 Bess Myerson

[Kindelan]

It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.

Burying the hatchet...

[skwirrlking]

R.I.P?

[Kindelan]

This is the beginning of a new day.

God has given me this day to use as I will.
I can waste it or use it for good, but what I do today is important
because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever,
leaving in its place something that I have traded for it.

I want it to be gain and not loss; good and not evil;
success and not failure; in order that I shall not
regret the price I have paid for it.

[Kindelan]

Do you want to improve the world?
I don't think it can be done.

The world is sacred.
It can't be improved.
If you tamper with it, you'll ruin it.
If you treat it like an object, you'll lose it.

There is a time for being ahead,
a time for being behind;
a time for being in motion;
a time for being at rest;
a time for being vigorous;
a time for being exhausted;
a time for being safe,
a time for being in danger.

The Master sees things as they are, without trying to control them.
She lets them go their own way, and resides at the center of the circle.

Verse 27
Tao Te Ching
Translated by Stephen Mitchell

[Kindelan]

Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy; it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.

Helen Keller

[Kindelan]

Pain and death are part of life. To reject them is to reject life itself.

Havelock Ellis
 

[Kindelan]

The cure for anything is salt water, whether it comes in the form of sweat, tears or the sea.

Isak Dinesen

[Kindelan]

Know the strength of man, but keep a woman's care!
Be the stream of the universe!
Being the stream of the universe, ever true and unswerving,
Become as a little child once more.

Know the white, but keep the black!
Be an example to the world!
Being an example to the world, ever true and unwavering,
Return to the infinite.

Know honor, yet keep humility.
Be the valley of the universe!
Being the valley of the universe, ever true and resourceful,
Return to the state of the uncarved block.

When the block is carved, it becomes useful.
When the sage uses it, he becomes the ruler.
Thus, "A great tailor cuts little."

Verse 28
Tao Te Ching
(translated by Gia-Fu Feng and Jane English)

[Kindelan]

For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin--real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.

Alfred D. Souza

[Kindelan]

Humility makes you better.

[Kindelan]

What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action.

Meister Eckhart

[Kindelan]

We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons.

Jim Rohn

[Kindelan]

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground, they want rain without thunder and lightning.

Frederick Douglass
