"The Tao of heaven Is like drawing a bow Lower that which is high Raise that which is low Reduce that which is excessive Add to that which is insufficient The Tao of heaven Reduces the excessive And adds to the insufficient The Tao of people is not so Reducing the insufficient In order to offer to the excessive Who can offer their excess to the world? Only those who have the Tao Therefore sages act without conceit Achieve without claiming credit They do not wish to display their virtue"
