Author : Laozi (Lao-Tzu)
Translator : Ursula K. Le Guin
Text :
Heavy is the root of light.[19]
Still is the master of moving.[20]
So wise souls make their daily march
with the heavy baggage wagon.
Only when safe
in a solid, quiet house
do they lay care aside.
How can a lord of ten thousand chariots
let his own person
weigh less in the balance than his land?
Lightness will lose him his foundation,
movement will lose him his mastery.
