"The Solid is the root of the light; The Quiescent is the master of the Hasty. Therefore the Sage travels all day Yet never leaves his provision-cart. In the midst of honor and glory, He lives leisurely, undisturbed. How can the ruler of a great country Make light of his body in the empire (by rushing about)? In light frivolity, the Center is lost; In hasty action, self-mastery is lost."
