"The softest (chih jou) in the world, Gallops (ch'ih ch'eng) in the hardest (chih chien) in the world. That which is not penetrates that which has no crevice (wu yu ju wu chien). I thereby know the benefit of no-action (wu-wei). The teaching without words, The benefit of no-action, Hardly anything in the world can compare with them."
