Chuang Tzu

Chuang Tzu (c. 370-287 BCE)

“The understanding of the men of ancient times went a long way. How far did it go? To the point where some of them believed that things have never existed—so far, to the end, where nothing can be added.”

  • From Chuang Tzu: Basic Writings (section 2), translated by Burton Watson. (Columbia University Press, 1996).
