同样,如果君主推举贤人做官,那么人民就学会了竞争,君主爱惜金银财宝,那么人民就懂得了偷盗。所以要想治理好国家,就应该让人民头脑空,肚子饱,身体强壮,但没有欲望。这叫做“无为而治”,就是什么都不需要做的、顺其自然的治国方法。

By the same token, if a monarch selects wise men to become officials, the people will become competitive; if he covets wealth and treasure, the people will learn to steal. Therefore, in order to properly administer a country, the peoples' minds should be empty, their bellies full, and their bodies strong, but they should have no desires. This is called "governing by doing nothing;" using it, you need not do anything. It's a method of governance that follows the natural course of nature.
他很强壮。
