Wang Bi (226–249 CE)
人恶卑也。道无水有，故曰几也。言水之善，众行之中，最近于道。处众人之所恶，故几于道。
James Legge (1891)
The highest excellence is like (that of) water. The excellence of water appears in its benefiting all things, and in its occupying, without striving (to the contrary), the low place which all men dislike. Hence (its way) is near to (that of) the Tao.
