Zhuangzi
“The Perfect Man uses his mind like a mirror - going after nothing, welcoming nothing, responding but not storing.”
Zhuangzi, The Complete Works of Chuang Tzu

Zhuangzi
“Where is that man who has forgotten words that I may have a word with him?”
Chuang Tsu

Zhuangzi
“The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of the word is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.”
Chuang Tzu

Alan W. Watts
“Paradoxical as it may seem, the purposeful life has no content, no point. It hurries on and on, and misses everything. Not hurrying, the purposeless life misses nothing, for it is only when there is no goal and no rush that the human senses are fully open to receive the world.”
Alan Watts

Zhuangzi
“Right is not right; so is not so. If right were really right, it would differ so clearly from not right that there would be no need for argument. If so were really so, it would differ so clearly from not so that there would be no need for argument. Forget the years; forget distinctions. Leap into the boundless and make it your home!”
Zhuangzi, The Complete Works of Chuang Tzu
