'Before the appropriate time has arrived, there is preservation of tranquility and silence; once the time has arrived, there is caution lest fullness overflow. Observing the waxing and waning of positive and negative forces to discern the subtle portents of good and ill outcomes, of regret and humiliation, the sages therefore appeared and disappeared deliberately, changing freely, advancing and withdrawing as appropriate. Looking at it this way, is not living in in concert with the time the science of sages?"
