📜 ᱛᱷᱚᱠ ᱧᱮᱞᱢᱟ (Wang Bi · Legge · AI Modern)
James Legge (1891)
Gravity is the root of lightness; stillness, the ruler of movement. Therefore a wise prince, marching the whole day, does not go far from his baggage waggons. Although he may have brilliant prospects to look at, he quietly remains (in his proper place), indifferent to them.
