Famous Chinese proverb: Lao Zi
juin 4th, 2009
From now on, and since that first article, I will try to find the most famous chinese proverbs, well at least those I like the most, and share all these quotations with you. There will be really short ones, but it doesn’t matter, chinese philosophers didn’t really need many words to say wise sentences.
« Running a large country is like cooking a small fish. »
I’m not a philosopher and I might not understand the meaning of this sentence from Lao Zi, but I guess it means that each of us has talents, skills, and even a man who can run a country might not be able to cook a fish.
