my favorite of all those things is the tao te ching. it's vague enough to be applicable to everything, like a horoscope, and short enough not to bore.
actually, chuang-tzu (also a taoist) is HILARIOUS. highly recommended, if you haven't. and i don't mean hilarious in the "laughable, ridiculous" way that christian miracles are hilarious. i mean great sense of humor.
