Zhuangzi — "When you are born, you are soft and weak; when you die, you are hard and stiff. …"

When you are born, you are soft and weak; when you die, you are hard and stiff. When plants are alive, they are soft and tender; when they are dead, they are dry and brittle. Therefore, the soft and weak are the companions of life; the hard and stiff are the companions of death.
Zhuangzi — Zhuangzi Ancient · Daoist philosopher
