People versus Rulers
"People starve. The rulers consume too much with their taxes. That is why people starve. People are hard to govern. The rulers interfere with too much. That is why people are hard to govern. People take death lightly. They expect too much of life. That is why people take death lightly. Truly, only acting without thought of one's life Is superior to valuing one's life."
