Lao Tzu Quotes about People

  • A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: We did it ourselves.
  • Fail to honour people, they’ll fail to honour you.
  • People in their handling of affairs often fail when they are about to succeed. If one remains as careful at the end as he was at the beginning, there will be no failure.
