Path to Greatness
a
Great perfection seems imperfect
But its lasting usefulness is unfailing
b
Great fullness seems empty
And yet it is inexhaustible
Great straightness seems crooked
c
d
Great skill seems clumsy
Great eloquence seems silent
e
Bustling-about overcomes cool times
f
Stillness overcomes heated times
Thus, stillness and silence are the Way of nature
