More Words Count Less

Heaven and earth are ruthless;

They see the ten thousand things
as dummies.

The wise are ruthless;

They see the people as dummies.

The space between
heaven and earth
is like a bellows.

The shape changes
but not the form;

The more it moves,
the more it yields.

More words count less.

Hold fast to the center.


Lao Tsu, Tao Te Ching, chapter 5
