EASTERN PHILOSOPHY: BOOK OF THE WAY (by Lao Tzu)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ever increasing tension
leads to catastrophic failure
Too fine an edge
wears away quickly.
Monumental wealth brings insecurity.
Ostentation invites trouble.
Therefore, accomplish wealth and fame,
but recognise that enough is enough.
This is the Way of real success.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The saying says that for real success, you must relax and not show off. Be great at what you do, but be humble about it.
