The Tao of power

Using What is Not
Thirty spokes converge at one hub;
What is not there makes the wheel useful.
Clay is shaped to form a vessel ;
What is not there makes the vessel useful.
Doors and windows are cut to form a room;
What is not there makes the room useful.

Therefore, take advantage of what is there,
By making use of what is not.


Pretty cool.
I can hardly wait to start using this book in my school.

  4. I'm afraid I didn't write it, so I couldn't really submit it as my work, but it'd be fun to post it on the forums and discuss it :)
