Lao Tzu Quote
In these shot essay I will be analyzing a quote written by Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu was a Chinese philosopher, the founder of the Taoism and writer of the Tao-Te-Ching. These quote is helping us realize the importance of thinking before taking action. For me thinking before taking action on a subject is important because often people do not think about the consequences there actions may have. Actions and word could harm or hurt other people, and eventually may hurt us too. For example Lao Tzu’s quote expresses merit.

    Siddhartha Gautama Quotes

    • 368 Words
    • 2 Pages

    The quote I chose for Siddhartha Gautama is “A wise man, recognizing that the world is but an illusion, does not act as if it is real, so he escapes the suffering.” I chose this quote for him because he was born to a mother who was part of the tribal ancestry and a father who was a wealthy king. He had the means to live a life of luxury; however he instead devoted his life to understanding balance and suffering. Though he didn’t have to live the effects of the suffering of humans, he always set out to discover the deep meaning of feelings that are associated with agony and anguish that some experience. The quote showed that he thought that all human beings can experience suffering. Also, he sought out to find something much deeper than materialistic…

    The language of love is a unique communication method everyone knows. It is not limited to only one part of the world or just on one continent. Love is everywhere. This universal code can be shared with others no matter their creed, language, or nationality which sometimes hinders our ability to form close bonds. Borders and bodies of water help create separation in the human race. Truman Capote’s quote, “Love, having no geography, knows no boundaries,” stresses the unity and harmony in which all people should live by.…

    Power was the main thing everyone wanted to have. Obtaining it was another problem. For example, leaders gained power through those who followed them and if no one did, they could not be a leader. They had to be able to succeed in hardships and be able to go through difficulty in order to gain popularity and power. An example of a leader who earned his power by displaying his ability of making strategies that encouraged people to join him on his conquests and expeditions was Alexander the Great. Although some successful leaders are born into a high rank, the man who would eventually become Genghis Khan, Temujin, was born into poverty and misfortune. With great difficulty, Temujin overcame his disadvantage to become a powerful…

    In the quote by Martin Luther King about how hate cannot drive out hate, only love can, is the same concept with, Nobel Peace Prize winner, Malala Yousafzai’s speech to the UN. Her speech expresses her thoughts and drive about education and women's rights. First, a quote from Malala’s speech which is similar to Mr. King’s quote. “We realize the importance of light when we see darkness,” defends King’s quote because she is saying we see the goodness/love in the world when hate is shown.

Whilst interactions with adults can be very important it is often, due to the nature of the relationship, when children interact with peers and siblings that the potential for development through play becomes apparent. Play can be based either on complimentary or reciprocal processes.
