Intelligent control appears as uncontrol or freedom
And for that reason it is genuinely intelligent control
Unintelligent control appears as external domination
And for that reason it is really unintelligent control
Intelligent control exerts influence without appearing to do so
Unintelligent control tries to influence by a show of force

 

Taken from the book Out of Control, by Kevin Kelly, in which he sites Lao Tzu as the author of the passage written in the Tao Teh King 2600 years ago.
