Yea, I thought he was just referring to his time. Then I went to Afghanistan and guarded poppy fields and loaded a bunch of crates of opium onto an air force plane. I thought there was a war on drugs going on.... I'm part of the "I don't know" group.

Peace is his highest value
If the peace has been shattered,
how can he be content?

His enemies are not demons,
but humans, like himself.

He doesn't wish them personal harm,
nor does he rejoice in victory.

How could he rejoice in victory,
and delight in the slaughter of men.

He enters a battle gravely
with sorrow and great compassion
as if he were attending a funeral.

Lao Tzu - Tao Te Ching

What is a good man, but a bad man's teacher.
What is a bad man but a good man's job.

If you don't understand this, you will get lost,
however intelligent you are.

It is the great secret.

Use order to await chaos
use stillness to await clamor

At the right moment
not acting is the most skillful
