道德經 第四十章
反者道之動,
高以下為基,貴以賤為本,有以無為用,此其反也。動皆知其所無,則物通矣。故曰,反者道之動也。
弱者道之用。
柔弱同通,不可窮極。
天下萬物生於有,有生於無。
天下之物皆以有為生,有之所始,以無為本,將欲全有,必反於無也。

I know
Jane: He would have led you straight to Red John.
Lisbon: You’d be dead.
Jane: But you’d have Red John.
Lisbon: I don’t think you mean what you say. I think you’d choose life.
Jane: Well you think wrong.
Lisbon: No. No, you think wrong. Can’t you see there’s people who care about you, who need you? You’re being selfish and childish. And I want you to stop it.
Jane: I wish that I could, but you know some things you just can’t fix. Me being angry is just the way of the world.
