I got new drinking glasses with gold script on them. They look quite pretty, but then I decided to read what they said. So I leave you with this beautiful, philosophical bit of Engrish from said glasses, with formatting intact:
To guide what can be GUIDED is not constant guiding.
To name what can be named is not constant naming.
Not-exist names the beginning (boundary) of the cosmos
(HEAVEN AND EARTH)
EXISTS names the mother of the ten-thousand natural kinds.
Thus, to treat not-exist as
CONSTANT is desiring to use it to view its mysteries.
To treat exists as constant is desiring to use it to view
its MANIFESTATIONS.
These two emerge TOGETHER yet have different names.
Together -- call that obscure. OBSCURE
it and it is more obscure.
......the gateway of a crowd of MYSTERIES.
