# LaoZi & Confucius

* **Learning without thought is labor lost; thought without learning is perilous.** **Confucius**
* **The Dao hides in wordlessness. Only the Dao is well begun and well completed.**

  **LaoZi**
* **The great square is cornerless** **The great vessel is last complete,** **The great note is rarified sound,** **The great image has no form.**

  **Laozi (Tao Te Ching)**
* **The hardest thing of all is to find a black cat in a dark room, especially if there is no cat.**

  **Confucius**
* **Once the whole is divided, the parts need names. There are already enough names. One must know when to stop.** 

  **Laozi (Tao Te Ching)**
* **When in the light, can’t see anything in the darkness. When in the darkness, can see everything in the light.** 

  **Guan Yin Zi**
* **The great Tao flows everywhere, both to the left and to the right.**
