When the Tao is disregarded in the\nworld, the war-horses breed in the border lands.\n\nThere is no guilt greater than to sanction ambition; no calamity\ngreater than to be discontented with one's lot; no fault greater than\nthe wish to be getting. Therefore the sufficiency of contentment is\nan enduring and unchanging sufficiency.",
