"The greatest Way is not cited as an authority,
The greatest discrimmination is unspoken,
The greatest goodwill is cruel,
The greatest honesty does not make itself awkward,
The greatest courage does not spoil for a fight.
When the Way is lit it does not guide,
When speech discrimminates it fails to get there,
Goodwill too constant is at someone's expense,
Honesty too clean is not to be trusted,
Courage that spoils for a fight is immature."
-from the "Inner Chapters" of the Taoist
