    Tao Te Ching Chapter 47
    translated by Ursula K. Le Guin

    You don't have to go out the door
    to know what goes on in the world.
    You don't have to look out the window
    to see the way of Heaven.
    The farther you go
    the less you know.

    So the wise soul
    doesn't go, but knows;
    doesn't look, but sees;
    doesn't do, but gets it done.
