« Taoist thinking is a philosophy of opportunity. The non-act that she advocates is not to act, but to act by espousing the movement of life - without losing sight of her own goals, her own intentions, without seeking to achieve them immediately and at any cost. If life opposes it, let us carry by its flow. We will achieve this goal later, if not ever, if we have changed our focus in the meantime. »
