Da de ru shui

Interpretation: Laozi said: "Good is like water", "Water is the good of all things and does not dispute, and it is the evil of all people, so it is a few words". What I'm actually talking about here is the way to be a man, that is, to be a man should nourish everything like water, but never compete with everything. This kind of character is closest to Tao.

From: Good as water. Water is good for all things without dispute, and evil for all, so it is a few words. Living in a good place, kind-hearted, kind-hearted, good at words, good at governance, good at doing things, good at dealing with people. The husband does not dispute, so he has no worries. -Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching
