I’ve just come across your site whilst looking for this poem and I will be exploring further, looks great. For me, what this poem expresses so well is how hard it can be to make that first step, how we long to find those stars without leaving and how impossible that is.

Comment on What did the garrulous Lao Zi know? by Cindy

Cindy — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 21:06:43 +0000

Hello Joe,

Interesting to find a Lao Zi here.

Actually, I think the first Chinese version is correct especially the first line (not a poem person not sure what should be called)

言者不如知者默 — people who talk/say cannot compare to person who knows and keep silent

in plain English:

Person who talks about what he/she knows is not as knowledgeable as a person who has the knowledge and not talk about it to show-off his/her knowledge

… I think one has to put the Chinese cultures here to really understand why … Chinese, we are supposed to be humble, so not to yak about how much one knows.

On the other hand, I always feel that people who wants others to know how much he/she knows are generally have inferiority complex. And therefore the need to let others know how much he/she knows!

People who actually have the knowledge (superior) does not feel the need to show-off because he knows!

And that comes to one interesting point as far as KM is concerned. KM promotes knowledge sharing. So the person who says a lot does that mean this person knows a lot OR should we go to the silent ones ?
