“In laying out gardens, pavilions, wandering paths, small mountains of stone, and flower paintings, try to give the feeling of the small in the large and the large in the small, of the real in the illusion, and of the illusion in reality. Some things should be hidden and some should be obvious, some prominent and some vague. Arranging a proper garden is not just a matter of setting out winding paths in a broad area with many rocks; thinking that it is will only waste time and energy.”
― Shen Fu, Six Records of a Floating Life

“If you were to hide the world in the world, so that nothing could get away, this would be the final reality of the constancy of things.”
― Zhuangzi
