LAO TZU

   
Tao Te Ching. 

"Truly, 'Only he that rids himself forever of desire can see the Secret Essences';
He that has never rid himself of desire can see only the Outcomes." [Ch. 1]1a

" . . . [I]f every one recognized virtue as virtue, this would merely create fresh conceptions of wickedness.
For truly 'Being and Not-being grow out of one another; . . .'" [Ch. 2]1b

"For to know what once there was, in the Beginning,
This is called the essence of the Way." [Ch. 14]1c

"To know the always-so is to be Illumined;
Not to know it, means to go blindly to disaster.." [Ch. 16]1d

"Banish skill, discard profit,
And thieves and robbers will disappear."
[Ch. 19]1e

"The more prohibitions there are . . 
The poorer the people
will be. . . 
The more laws are promulgated,
The more thieves and bandits there will be." [Ch. 57]1f
DESCARTES

"In the governance of empire everything difficult must be dealt with while it is still easy,
Everything great must be dealt with while it is small." [Ch. 63]1g

"Heaven's net is wide;
Coarse are the meshes, yet nothing slips through." [Ch. 73]1h

"The people starve because those above them eat too much tax-grain." [Ch. 75]1i
