Quote of the Day

Blowhard, Esq. writes:

lao-tzu-bird

The ordinary man is luminously clear,
I alone seem confused.
The ordinary man is searchingly exact,
I alone am vague and uncertain.

How nebulous!
as the ocean;
How blurred!
as though without boundary.

The masses all have a purpose,
I alone am stubborn and uncouth.

Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching, trans. by Victor H. Mair
