Tao Te Ching


Overfulfillment

Keep filling your bowl,
And it will spill over.

Keep sharpening your knife,
And it will blunt.

Keep hoarding gold in your house,
And you will be robbed.

Keep seeking approval,
And you will be chained.

The Greatest Integrity leads to actualization,
Never overfulfillment.

Verse 9
