1. When the Tâo prevails in the world, they send back their swift horses to (draw) the dung-carts.
When the Tâo is disregarded in the world, the war-horses breed in the border lands.
2. There is no guilt greater than to sanction ambition; no calamity greater than to be discontented
with one's lot; no fault greater than the wish to be getting. Therefore the sufficiency
of contentment is an enduring and unchanging sufficiency.
