Chapter 81
True words are not fancy; fancy words are not true. Good people do not argue; people who argue are not good. Those who truly understand the Tao are not necessarily widely learned; those who are widely learned do not necessarily understand the Tao. The sage does not hoard for himself. The more he does for others, the more he has. The more he gives to others, the more he gains. The way of Heaven benefits all things and harms none. The way of the sage is to act without competing.
