“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

What really tickles me are the vast number of books that 'translate' The Tao te Ching from poetic imagery to actual advice and description.

Just because The Tao cannot be described doesn't prevent everybody and their dog from trying to do it and capitalize on the vague mystery of it all.




Humans have to do something with all the 60 to 80 years they are going to spend here. Humanity removed from doing the work of survival gets bored. It's either philosophy or guns.

With much wisdom comes much sorrow,
The more knowledge, the more grief.
