Tao Te Ching

“spiritually minded, longing for light… called ‘the most widely beloved of all the literary treasures of Greece,’ [Plutarch] knew how to create happiness around him. To him a superstition was not a mistaken belief, a kind of religious stupidity; it was an unmitigated evil… His most profound conviction was that we must love the highest when we see it. He was Greece’s far-sighted spokesman for a change that was beginning in the moral atmosphere of the world.”

— Edith Hamilton 1867 – 1963 CE
