The great Tao is everywhere! It is on both the right and the left. All things rely upon it for their existence, and it sustains them. It draws praise, but is not proud. It lovingly nourishes everything, and is not possessive. It desires nothing, and so it is considered small. Yet everything returns to it, and so it should be considered great. The wise do not appear great among others; and so they reveal their true greatness.
