The most famous classical Chinese text on how to be a person and do things is Laozi's Tao Te Ching·Chapter 77 .

It is regarded as a classic discussion on how to behave in the world. The original text is as follows: The way of heaven is like a bow and a bow? Those who are high will suppress it, those who are low will lift it; those who have more will lose it, and those who are deficient will make up for it.

The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is excess damage. The way of man is not like that, if the loss is not enough, there will be more than enough.

Who can serve the world with more than enough, only the Taoist. Therefore, he does not rely on saints, he does not rely on his achievements, and he does not want to see the good and evil.

Translation: Isn’t the law of nature very similar to stretching a bow and shooting an arrow? If the string is pulled high, lower it a little; if it is low, raise it a little higher; if it is over-stretched, relax it some; if it is under-stretched, add some more. The law of nature is to reduce excess supply to insufficient supply.

But the law of society is not like this. We should reduce what is insufficient and give it to those who have surplus. So, who can reduce the excess to make up for the deficiencies of the world? Only the wise can do it.

Therefore, a righteous saint can do something without appropriating it, and achieve something without taking credit. He is unwilling to show his merit.
