The Sayings of Lao Tzu

This is Lionel Giles' translation of the Tao te Ching, from the Wisdom of the East series. Giles (1875–1958) was Keeper of the Department of Oriental Books and Manuscripts at the British Museum. He also translated Sun Tzu's Art of War. A very clear English rendition of this very difficult and profound text.

Citater

Jovani González Hernándezhar citeretfor 3 år siden
here is nothing in the world more soft and weak than water, yet for attacking things that are hard and strong there is nothing that surpasses it, nothing that can take its place.
The soft overcomes the hard; the weak overcomes the strong.

He who knows others is clever, but he who knows himself is enlightened. He who overcomes others is strong, but he who overcomes himself is mightier still. He is rich who knows when he has enough.

The pursuit of book-learning brings about daily increase. The practice of Tao brings about daily loss.
