Zǐ yuē: “Tiānxià hé sī hé lǜ! Tiānxià tóng guī ér shū tú, yī zhì ér bǎi lǜ, tiānxià hé sī hé lǜ!”
The Master said: “In all (the processes taking place) under heaven, what is there of thinking and what is there of anxious scheming? They all come to the same (successful) issue, though by different paths; there is one result, though there might be a hundred anxious schemes. What is there of thinking? What is there of anxious scheming!”
