taken from the Tao Te Ching
Thus it is said:
The path into the light seems dark,
the path forward seems to go back,
the direct path seems long,
true power seems weak,
true purity seems tarnished,
true steadfastness seams changeable,
true clarity seems obscure,
the greatest art seems unsophistcated,
the greatest love seems indifferent,
the greatest wisdom seems childish.
