Author : Laozi (Lao-Tzu)

Translator : Ursula K. Le Guin

Text :
----------------------------------



The wise have no mind of their own,

finding it in the minds

of ordinary people.



They’re good to good people

and they’re good to bad people.

Power is goodness.

They trust people of good faith

and they trust people of bad faith.

Power is trust.



They mingle their life with the world,

they mix their mind up with the world.

Ordinary people look after them.[33]

Wise souls are children.[34]
