Lao Tzu's philosophy: 
Supreme goodness is like water:
the water's goodness benefits
myriads of creatures –
yet not competing;
It dwells in places
everyone disdains –
insofar it comes close to Dào.
In dwelling, esteem grounding,
in the heart, esteem profoundness,
in giving, esteem humanity,
in talking, esteem sincerity,
in business, esteem competence,
in activities, esteem timing.
For only without competing,
so you are without blame.
