Chapter 47

不出戶，知天下；
不窺牖，見天道。
其出彌遠，其知彌少。
是以聖人不行而知，不見而明，不為而成。

Without going out of the door, one knows the world;
without looking out of the window, one sees the Way of heaven.
The farther one goes, the less one knows.
That is why the sage knows without traveling, has clarity without looking, achieves without doing.
