6321	Vulgar people are alert; I alone am muddled [Laozi (Lao Tzu)]
	Full Idea: Vulgar people are alert; I alone am muddled.
	From: Laozi (Lao Tzu) (Daodejing (Tao Te Ching) [c.530 BCE], I.XX.47)
	A reaction: Personally I think all human beings are deeply perplexed when they actually address their situation, but most people never spend more than a few minutes a year worrying about it.
