The Wisdom of
Prevention
Deal with the
difficult,
While it is still easy.
Solve large problems
When they are still small.
Preventing large problems
By taking small steps
Is easier than solving them.
Therefore, the Tao person
Anticipates and lives wisely.
By small actions
Accomplishing great things.
-- Tao 67
Some years ago, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg commissioned a sculpture
that stands outside the United Nations Building in New York City.
The purpose of the sculpture is to promote world peace. In 1994,
Suzanne and Rachel Bunkers visited the United Nations and saw the "No War" sculpture.
