5 道德經:
天地不仁,以萬物為芻狗;聖人不仁,以百姓為芻狗。天地之間,其猶橐籥乎?虛而不屈,動而愈出。多言數窮,不如守中。
Dao De Jing:
(The use of emptiness)
Heaven and earth do not act from (the impulse of) any wish to be benevolent; they deal with all things as the dogs of grass are dealt with. The sages do not act from (any wish to be) benevolent; they deal with the people as the dogs of grass are dealt with. May not the space between heaven and earth be compared to a bellows?
'Tis emptied, yet it loses not its power;
'Tis moved again, and sends forth air the more.
Much speech to swift exhaustion lead we see;
Your inner being guard, and keep it free.

3 自然:
老子曰:天地之道,以德為主,道為之命,物以自正。至微甚內,不以事貴,故不待功而立,不以位為尊,不待名而顯,不須禮而莊,不用兵而強。故道立而不教,明照而不察,道立而不教者,不奪人能也,明照而不察者,不害其事也。夫教道者,逆於德,害於物,故陰陽四時,金木水火土,同道而異理,萬物同情而異形。智者不相教,能者不相受,故聖人立法,以導民之心,各使自然,故生者無德,死者無怨。天地不仁,以萬物為芻狗,聖人不仁,以百姓為芻狗。夫慈愛仁義者,近狹之道也,狹者入大而迷,近者行遠而惑,聖人之道,入大不迷,行遠不惑,常虛自守,可以為極,是謂天德。

虛用

1 虛用:
天地不仁,天施地化,不以仁恩,任自然也。以萬物為芻狗。天地生萬物,人最為貴,天地視之如芻草狗畜,不貴望其報也。聖人不仁,聖人愛養萬民,不以仁恩,法天地行自然。以百姓為芻狗。聖人視百姓如芻草狗畜,不貴望其禮意。天地之間,天地之間空虛,和氣流行,故萬物自生。人能除情欲,節滋味,清五臟,則神明居之也。其猶橐籥乎。橐籥中空虛,人能有聲氣。虛而不屈,動而愈出。言空虛無有屈竭時,動搖之,益出聲氣也。多言數窮,多事害神,多言害身,口開舌舉,必有禍患。不如守中。不如守德於中,育養精神,愛氣希言。

5 輿服上:
》曰:「明試以功,車服以庸。」言昔者聖人興天下之大利,除天下之大害,躬親其事,身履其勤,憂之勞之,不避寒暑,使天下之民物,各得安其性命,無夭昏暴陵之災。是以天下之民,敬而愛之,若親父母;則而養之,若仰日月。夫愛之者欲其長久,不憚力役,相與起作宮室,上棟下宇,以雍覆之,欲其長久也;敬之者欲其尊嚴,不憚勞煩,相與起作輿輪旌旗章表,以尊嚴之。斯愛之至,敬之極也。苟心愛敬,雖報之至,情由未盡。或殺身以為之,盡其情也;弈世以祀之,明其功也。是以流光與天地比長。後世聖人,知恤民之憂思深大者,必饗其樂;勤仁毓物使不夭折者,必受其福。故為之制禮以節之,使夫上仁繼天統物,不伐其功,民物安逸,若道自然,莫知所謝。老子曰:「聖人不仁,以百姓為芻狗。」此之謂也。
