Chapter Seventy

My words are very easy to know, and very easy to practice; but there is no one in the world who is able to know and able to practice them.

There is an originating and all-comprehending principle in my words, and an authoritative law for the things which I enforce.  It is because they do not know these, that men do not know me.

They who know me are few, and I am on that account the more to be prized.  It is thus that the sage wears a poor garb of hair cloth, while he carries his signet of jade in his bosom.

Additional Info

Tao of the Day is a site for all things related to the Tao (also spelled Dao). We'll cover the entire Tao Te Ching several times each year, with one chapter being the center of attention each day. You can always comment on past days, but let's try to keep it flowing as the days progress.
