Complying with heaven
"He who excels as a warrior is not warlike. He who excels as a fighter is not wrathful. He who excels in conquering the enemy does not strive. He who excels in employing men is lowly. This is called the virtue of not-striving. This is called utilising men's ability. This is called complying with heaven - since olden times the highest."
