Tao Te Ching


Too Much Invites Disaster

What is over expanded
Becomes diminished.
What is too strong becomes weakened,
What is to high is cut down.
What is over possessed
Becomes impoverished.

It is the nature of process
That in the final stages,
Those who are over extended,
Over armed and over privileged,
Shall be overcome

Disaster stalks the fish
Which swims up from its deep water home,
And the army which threatens to conquer
Those beyond its own borders.
