Be Like Water

Nothing in the world
is as soft and yielding as water.
Yet for dissolving the hard and inflexible,
nothing can surpass it.

The soft overcomes the hard;
the gentle overcomes the rigid.
Everyone knows this is true,
but few can put it into practice.

- Lao Tzu -
(Tao Te Ching, chapter 78, translation by Stephen Mitchell)
