Act by
not acting,
accomplish by not
straining, understand
by not knowing. Regard the
humble as exalted and the exalted
as humble. Remedy injury
with tranquil
repair.
Meet
the difficult while
it is still easy; cross the
universe one step at a time.
Because the sage doesn’t try
anything too big, she’s able
to accomplish big
things.
Those
who commit lightly
seldom come through.
Those who think everything
is easy will find everything hard.
The sage understands that
everything is difficult, and
thus in the end has no
difficulties.
