Taoism - Stan Rosenthal's Tao Te Ching - Translation

Taoism - Stan Rosenthal's Tao Te Ching - Translation A note to young Bush from a translation of the Tao: To master one's self, one must act without cunning. The greater the number of laws and restrictions, the poorer the people who inhabit the land. The sharper the weapons of battle and war, the greater the troubles besetting the land. The greater the cunning with which people are ruled, the stranger the things which occur in the land. The harder the rules and regulations, the greater the number of those who will steal.
