"My writing is like a ten gallon spring. It can issue from the ground anywhere at all. On smooth ground it rushes swiftly on and covers a thouasand li in a single day without difficulty.

What can be known is, it always goes where it must go, always stops where it cannot help stopping -- nothing else. More than that, even I cannot know." »Su Shih
