Lao Tze
“There is a thing inherent and natural, which existed before heaven and earth. Motionless and fathomless, It stands alone and never changes; It pervades everywhere and never becomes exhausted. It may be regarded as the Mother of the Universe. I do not know its name. If I am forced to give it a name, I call it Tao, and I name it as supreme.” ~Lao Tze
“Thirty spokes share the wheel’s hub/It is the centre hole that makes it useful./Shape clay into a vessel;/It is the space within that makes it useful./Cut doors and windows for a room;/It is the holes which make it useful./Therefore profit comes from what is there;/Usefulness from what is not there.” ~Lao Tze
