Tao Bible - Deuteronomy 23:6

Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
~ King James version ~

Seeking peace in all things is the way of Tao.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
Moses tells the people that they should never seek peace with the Ammonites or Moabites.

Regardless of a perceived wrong, we should always pursue peace. Animosity engenders resentment, jealousy and hate. These three emotions can overtake us and compromise our abilities to discern the Way.
