"To rarely speak - such is [the way of] Nature. Fierce winds don't last the whole morning; Torrential rains don't last the whole day. Who makes these things? If even Heaven and Earth can't make these last long - How much the more is this true for man?! Therefore, one who devotes himself to the Way is one with the Way; One who [devotes himself to] Virtue is one with that Virtue; And one who [devotes himself to] losing is one with that loss. To the one who is one with Virtue, the Way also gives Virtue; While for the one who is one with his loss, the Way also disregards him."
