Did Lao Tzu really write english Rose? Anyway, I don't buy such short-sighted cliches. The purpose of our great big brains and our very long life expectancy is to learn lots and remember huge amounts to apply in the present, expecting to create the future which later becomes the reality of the present which would otherwise not have happened.

It works wonderfully. Especially when megatons of brains [7 billion at present] go Gung Ho. And even more so when those 7 megatons of brains are turbocharged with umpty petaflops of silicon processing power linked by terabytes per second of fibre and quadrillions of bytes of memory all over the place.

No wonder dear old Lao was fatalistic - with only those quill pen hieroglyphs to record and communicate and life expectancy being short.
