Quote #10
Of course (his thoughts proceeded, also at a walking pace), it that's true, then the whole world as it now is should be on my side; because I dreamed a lot of it up, too. Well, after all, it is on my side. That is, I'm a part of it. Not separate from it. I walk on the ground and the ground's walked on by me, I breathe the air and change it, I am entirely interconnected with the world. (10.30)
George wins, and this is the whole goal of Taoism: to become one with nature and the world. And George's reward? Well, he gets to save the world, for one thing.
