The heavy is the root of the light.
The still is the master of unrest.
Realizing this,
the successful person is poised and centered
in the midst of all activities;
although surrounded by opulence,
he is not swayed.
Why should the lord of the country flit about like a fool?
If you let yourself be blown to and fro,
you lose touch with your root.
To be restless is to lose one's self-mastery.
- Lao Tzu
