老子道德经(英译本)Lao Tze 81. The Sage

作者：《Lao Tze》李耳

• Honest people use no rhetoric;
  Rhetoric is not honesty.
  Enlightened people are not cultured;
  Culture is not enlightenment.
  Content people are not rich;
  Riches are not contentment.
  
  So the sage does not serve himself;
  The more he does for others, the more he is satisfied;
  The more he gives, the more he receives.
  Nature flourishes at the expense of no one;
  So the sage benefits all men and contends with none.
