     道之真以治身，其绪余以为国家，其土苴以治天下。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]

     From: Zhuangzi, circa 3^rd – 2^nd centuries BCE, translated based on James Legge's version

     Dào zhī zhēn yǐ zhìshēn, qí xùyú yǐ wéi guójiā, qí chǎzhǎ yǐ zhì tiānxià. [Pinyin]

     The true object of the Dao is the regulation of the person. Quite subordinate to this is its use in the management of the state and the clan; while the government of the kingdom is but the dust and refuse of it.
