Tao Te Ching · Ch. 81

信言不美,美言不信。善者不辯,辯者不善。知者不博,博者不知。聖人不積,既以為人己愈有,既以與人己愈多。天之道,利而不害;聖人之道,為而不爭。

Xìn yán bù měi, měi yán bù xìn. Shàn zhě bù biàn, biàn zhě bù shàn. Zhī zhě bù bó, bó zhě bù zhī. Shèng rén bù jī, jì yǐ wéi rén jǐ yù yǒu, jì yǐ yǔ rén jǐ yù duō. Tiān zhī dào, lì ér bù hài; Shèng rén zhī dào, wéi ér bù zhēng.

True words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not true. The good do not argue; those who argue are not good. The wise are not learned in many things; those learned in many things are not wise. The sage does not accumulate — the more they give to others, the more they themselves have; the more they give to others, the more they themselves possess. The way of Heaven benefits and does not harm. The way of the sage is to act without contending.
