Living Softly (Verse 43, Tao Te Ching, Lao-tzu)

The softest of all things
overrides the hardest of all things.
That without substance enters where there is no space.
Hence I know the value of nonaction.

Teaching without words,
performing without actions-
few in the world can grasp it-
that is the master's way.
Rare indeed are those
who obtain the bounty of this world.
