 Softness, fluidity and suppleness
are the qualities
of living things.
 While rigidity and inflexibility
are the qualities
 dead things.
 As artists we must develop,
as our companions,
the qualities of the former
while overcoming
 the qualities of the latter
if we are to
 lead a fully vital, creative
life.
 The mastercraftsmen are able to 
        renew themselves even in old age.
 Because they keep their child 
        like wonder intact,
 They always draw new life
 from the Creative Harmony.
