Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Edinburgh Review or Critical Journal, Vol. 233: January, 1921 April, 1921 In the ninth century B.C., at the advanced age of ninety, the Chinese philosopher Lao Tse summed up in these three lines the wisdom necessary to the conduct of great affairs: - ´To govern a Kingdom, use righteousness. ´To conduct a war, use strategy. ´To be a true world-ruler, be occupied with inner life.´ And again the sage expands his condensed precepts in this aphorism, with which no student of strategy will venture to disagree: - ´To govern men and to serve Heaven nothing is better than to have a reserve. ´The Master indeed has a reserve: it is called brilliant foresight.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
