Islanders and The Fishers of Men
4 weeks ago
We join spokes together in a wheel,
but it is the center hole
that makes the wagon move.
We shape clay into a pot,
but it is the emptiness inside
that holds whatever we want.
We hammer wood for a house,
but it is the inner space
that makes it livable.
We work with being,
but non-being is what we use.
— Tao Te Ching
"Imagination is like a lofty building reared to meet the sky - fancy is a balloon that soars at the wind's will."
