Additional quotes by Lao Tzu
What the caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly.
If you show yourself, you will not be seen. If you affirm yourself, you will not shine. If you boast, you will have no merit. If you promote yourself, you will have no success.
If you want to govern the people,
You must place yourself below them.
If you want to lead people,
You must learn how to follow them.
