大成若缺
“Great perfection appears imperfect — but its usefulness is inexhaustible. Great fullness appears empty — but its usefulness never runs dry.”
大成若缺，其用不弊。大盈若冲，其用不穷。大直若屈，大巧若拙，大辩若讷。躁胜寒，静胜热。清静为天下正。
The most beautiful things in life are imperfect. A chipped teacup, a weathered face, a love that has survived hardship — these are more valuable than anything pristine.
大成若缺——最完美的如同有缺陷。
大盈若冲——最充实的如同空虚。
大直若屈——最正直的如同弯曲。
大巧若拙——最灵巧的如同笨拙。
大辩若讷——最善辩的如同木讷。
清静为天下正——清静是天下的准则。
此章老子将'反者道之动'具体化为五种'正言若反'的表达。
