Chapter 7, Part 12 - Lieh Tzu

Yang Chu said:, You may do good without thinking about fame, but fame will follow in its wake. Fame makes no tryst with gain, but gain will come all the same. Gain makes no tryst with strife, but strife will certainly ensue. Therefore the superior man is very cautious about doing good.'
~ Lionel Giles translation via Terebess Asia Online ~
