Kniha prekladal John H McDonald (a je písaná v anglickom jazyku), a myslím si, že preklad je veľmi hodnotný. Moja jedna z obľúbených myšlienok:
The book was translated by John H McDonald (and is written in English language), and I think the translation is very valuable. One of my favourite thoughts:
If you want to become whole,
first let youself become broken.
If you want to become straight,
first let yourself become twisted.
If you want to become full,
first let yourself become empty.
If you want to become new,
first let yourself become old.
Those whose desires are few get them,
those whose desires are great go astray.
For this reason the Master embrances the Tao,
as an example for the world to follow.
Because she isn´t self-centred,
people can see the light in her.
Because she does not boast of herself,
she becomes a shining example.
Because she does not glorify herself,
she becomes a person of merit.
Because she wants nothing from the world,
the world cannot overcome her.
