"Nothing in the world is more
flexible and yielding than water.
Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong,
none can withstand it,
because they have no way to change it.
So the flexible overcome the adamant,
the yielding overcome the forceful."
-Lao-Tzu

"He who obtains has little.

"I have three precious things
which I hold fast and prize.
The first is gentleness;
the second is frugality;
the third is humility,
which keeps me from putting
myself before others.
Be gentle and you can be bold;
be frugal and you can be liberal;
avoid putting yourself before others and
you can become a leader among men."
-Lao-Tzu

"The snow goose need not bathe
to make itself white.
Neither need you do anything
but be yourself."
