半畝方塘一鑑開,天光雲影共徘徊。
問渠那得清如許,為有源頭活水來。

Thoughts on Reading
Zhu Xi (1130 - 1200, Southern Song)
English translation: John Balcom
(ed. John Gill & Susan Tidwell)
A half acre square pond, like a mirror;
Light from the heavens,
and the shadows of the clouds,
together come and go.
How can a stream be as clear as this?
Because its original source comes from
rushing water.
── from Hui'an Ji
