Quote #10 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Peace and Society
“Though it is uncreated itself, it creates all things. Because it has no substance, it can enter into where there is no space. Exercising by returning to itself, winning victories by remaining gentle and yielding, it is softer than anything, and therefore it overcomes everything hard. What does this tell you about the benefit of non-action and silence?”
Source: "Hua Hu Ching," by Lao Tzu, circa 600, BC. Part 68.
