分定不爭
A wild hare was running in the field and behind it more than a hundred people were chasing it.
It was not because that the hare could be divided into a hundred portions but the ownership of the hare was not decided.
When a lot of hares were piled in the market, the passers -- by would not even loot at them. It was not because that people did not want to get them, but those hares already had their owner, and the ownership had been decided. As far as the administration of a country is concerned, the key is to make laws and regulations, establish clear ownership.

老子問疾
Laozi once went to visit the sick sage Shang Rong, and consulted him with somephilosophical problems.
Shang Rong told him that when he passed his hometown he should get off the chariot. Laozi asked, "Is this meant to show that I have not forget about the people in the hometown?"
Shang Rong nodded and added that when he passed an old tall tree he should walk fast in small paces. Laozi said, "Do you mean we should respect seniors?"
Shang Rong nodded again, and opened his mouth and asked, "Is my tongue still there?" "Yes", Laizi repled. "Is my tongue still there?" "No," Laozi answered, "Do you know what this mean?" Shang Rong said. Laozi answered, "You are telling me that the teeth fell off early because of their hardness while the tongue lasts long because of its softness?""Exactly! You already know all priciples and truths in the world."

商容又點(diǎn)點(diǎn)頭,然后張開口問道:“我的舌頭還在嗎?”老子說:“在”。商容又問:“我的牙齒還有嗎?”老子說:“沒有了。”商容說:“你知道這是什么意思嗎?”老子說:“先生想告訴我牙齒因?yàn)閯傆捕^早夭亡,舌頭因柔軟而長久存在這個(gè)道理嗎?”商容說:“對(duì)!你已經(jīng)明白天下的事理。”

五不足恃
Believing that to govern a country well you would have to depend on some people, Wei Wenhou asked Gu Juanzi, "Can I depend on my father, son, brother, and liegemen, who all have virtues and talents?"
Gu Juanzi gave him a negative answer and explained one by one, "Yao was noted for being a good father. But his son was exiled. Shun was noted for being a filial son, but his father Gu Shou could not tell evil from kind, and his younger brother was arrogant. Zhou Gong was a sage, but his elder brother was ordered to be executed by him. Shang Tang and Zhou Wuwang were able liegemen, but they overthrew their monarchs Xia Jie and Shang Zhou respectively. Those who depend on others can never achieve his goal and will not pervade long. If a monarch wants to govern his country well, he has to depend on himself."
魏文侯認(rèn)為治理國家必須依靠一些人,便問孤卷子:“是否可以信賴有德有才的父親、兒子、哥哥、弟弟、臣下?”
孤卷子一一給予否決并解釋說:“堯是有名的閑父,可他的兒子丹珠卻遭到流放,舜是有名的孝子,但他的父親瞽膄卻分不清善惡,他的弟弟也特別傲慢;周公是賢人,然而他的哥哥管叔卻被他處死;商湯和周武王都屬于能臣,他們的君主夏桀和商紂卻被他們打翻。把希望寄托在別人身上的人絕不可能實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目的,依賴別人的人也長久不了。君主要想治好國家,只能靠自己。”
