ADVICE FOR CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT

"WHEN YOU TRULY UNDERSTAND HUMAN NATURE AND DESTINY, KINDNESS AND JUSTICE ARE NATURALLY INCLUDED. UPS AND DOWNS CANNOT DISTURB YOU.
WHEN NOTHING COVERS THE SPIRIT AND NOTHING BURDENS THE MAID, YOU EXPERIENCE PENETRATING CLARITY AND EXPANSIVE OUTREACH. SERENE, WITHOUT PREOCCUPATION, NOT FIXATED ON ANYTHING, DEALING WITH EVERYTHING CALMLY, YOU ARE NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO CORRUPTION BY SENSUALITY.
RHETORIC CANNOT SWAY YOU; BEAUTY CANNOT INFLUENCE YOU. INTELLECTUALS CANNOT MOVE YOU; POWERMONGERS CANNOT FRIGHTEN YOU. THIS IS THE FREEDOM OF REAL PEOPLE."

The Tao of Politics, Thomas Cleary
