"Just as the value of a house lies in its location,
The value of a mind lies in its depth,
The value of giving lies in the presence of a generous spirit,
The value of words lies in their reliability"



Lao Tzu


Comments:
It's always been, action speak louder than words.
Lately in the us of a, the hypocrisy of our leaders words/actions have seemed to give those with no values an escape for their actions.
I digress.
Any Lao Tzu is always topical ; )
 
What makes a word reliable?
Is it what the listener sees in the words. For example the word "Strategery" is a truely reliable word that indicates the true nature of the user.
Always fun CJ
peace
 
Sounds like Lao Tzu sure had a lock on things.
 
Just as these sayings are about tranquility they are very calming to read.
