"When life begins

we are tender and weak

When life ends

we are stiff and rigid

All things, including the grass and trees,

are soft and pliable in life

dry and brittle in death

So the soft and supple

are the companions of life

While the stiff and unyielding

are the companions of death

An army that cannot yield

will be defeated

A tree that cannot bend

will crack in the wind

Thus by Nature's own decree

the hard and strong are defeated

while the soft and gentle are triumphant" - Lao Tzu
