“In a world that respects usefulness, Zhuangzi finds value in uselessness, pointing out that a great, crooked tree, useless for timber, will live long, while the trees that are useful to men are abused and their lives cut short.”
Harold M. Tanner, China: A History (Volume 1): From Neolithic Cultures through the Great Qing Empire,

“Since large, powerful landowners were better able to resist taxation than individual families, this often meant that the state’s tax revenue declined.”
Harold M. Tanner, China: A History (Volume 1): From Neolithic Cultures through the Great Qing Empire,

“It was not merely that they enjoyed these things (though they certainly did); a man’s career depended on his talents in the arts, particularly poetry and calligraphy.”
