Code Te Ching - Verse 49

The elite rests entirely, his mind is balanced and at ease.
He is not attached to methods or language, but he knows them well anyway.

A pebble cannot halt a stream, but can block a dam ten thousand times larger.
So too does the elite know, that though a language may have no use to the masses,
There are times where it simply outshines the most elaborate of methods.

The wise respect the direction of the elite,
The wise knows he is not blind to the world.
