Chapter 35

執大象，天下往。
往而不害，安平太。
樂與餌，過客止。
道之出口，淡乎其無味。
視之不足見，聽之不足聞，用之不足既。

Hold the great image, and all the world comes.
They come and meet no harm, and there is peace, evenness, and ease.
Music and good food make the passing traveler stop.
The Way, when it comes out of the mouth, is bland; it has no flavor.
Looked at, it is not worth seeing; listened to, it is not worth hearing; used, it cannot be used up.
