Quin’s Shanghai Circus Edward Whittemore
To remain whole, be twisted.To become straight, let yourself be bent.To become full, be hollow.Be tattered, that you may be renewed.Those that have little, may get more,Those that have much, are but perplexed.The Sage does not show himself, therefore he is seeneverywhere.He does not define himself, therefore he is distinct.He does not boast of what he will do, therefore hesucceeds.He is not proud of his work, and therefore it endures.He does not contend,And for that very reason no one under heaven cancontend with him.—Tao Te ChingFor by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not ofyourselves. It is the gift of God. Not of works, lest anyman should boast.—Ephesians 2
