Thank you for these. I've heard the second one in a number of different forms.
If you're interested in religious as well as philosophical Taoism you might find the neoplatonists worth exploring. There are ideas in Proclus, Iamblichus and Plotinus that dovetail neatly with ideas that I've also found in Quan Zhen literature.
