Though I cannot flee
from the world of corruption,
I can prepare tea
with water from a mountain stream
And put my heart to rest.
~ Ueda Akinari (1734-1809)
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few.
Though I cannot flee
from the world of corruption,
I can prepare tea
with water from a mountain stream
And put my heart to rest.
~ Ueda Akinari (1734-1809)
