    Words of truth are not pleasing.
    Pleasing words are not truthful.
    The wise one does not argue.
    He who argues is not wise.
    A wise man of Tao knows the subtle truth,
    And may not be learned.
    A learned person is knowledgeable but may not know the subtle truth of Tao.
    A saint does not possess and accumulate surplus for personal desire.
    The more he helps others, the richer his life becomes.
    The more he gives to others, the more he gets in return.
    The Tao of Nature benefits and does not harm.
    The Way of a saint is to act naturally without contention.
