"One who boasts is not established; One who shows himself off does not become prominent; One who puts himself on display does not brightly shine; One who brags about himself gests no credit; One who praises himself does not long endure. In the Way, such things are called: "Surplus food and redundant action." And with things—there are those who hate them. Therefore, the one with the Way in them does not dwell."
