| Printable Quotations |
| ZHUANGZI: Flow with whatever may happen and let your mind be free. Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate. |
| ZHUANGZI: Happiness is the absence of the striving for happiness. |
| ZHUANGZI: Cherish that which is within you, and shut off that which is without; for much knowledge is a curse. |
| ZHUANGZI: Rewards and punishment is the lowest form of education. |
| ZHUANGZI: We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away. |
| ZHUANGZI: All existing things are really one. We regard those that are beautiful and rare that are ugly as foul and rotten. The foul and rotten may come to be transformed into what is rare and valuable, and the rare and valuable into what is foul and rotten. |
| ZHUANGZI: Life comes from the earth and life returns to the earth. |
| ZHUANGZI: Those who realize their folly are not true fools. |
