道德经英文版（无为第二十九）
~{ 将欲取天下而为之，吾见其不得已。天下神器，不可为也，不可~}
~{执也。为者败之，执者失之。是以圣人无为，故无败；无执，故无失~}
~{。~}
~{ 夫物或行或随；或嘘或吹；或强或羸；或载或隳。~}
~{ 是以圣人去甚，去奢，去泰。~}
29. Ambition
Those who wish to change the world
According with their desire
Cannot succeed.
The world is shaped by flow;
It cannot be shaped by the self.
Trying to change it, you damage it;
Trying to possess it, you lose it.
So some lead, while others follow.
Some are warm, others cold
Some are strong, others weak.
Some get where they are going
While others fall by the way.
So the gentle are neither wasteful nor violent.
