Book Details
Table of Contents
Even a beast like a thousand-pound ox must lower its head to drink
A tree may grow to a thousand feet, but the leaves still return to their roots
When the horse has reached the edge of the cliff, it's too late to draw on the reins
Up in the sky there is paradise, but down on the Earth we have Hangzhou
The first Chinese rule: how can we go so far as to change the regulations of the Celestial Empire at the request of one man?
Sacrifice the plum tree in order to save the peach
The second Chinese rule: the long-divided shall unite, the long-united shall divide
Learn from the past; seek truth from facts
The flowers on a liverwort may be as small as a grain of rice, but they still want to blossom like a peony
The third Chinese rule: the art of war is of vital importance for the state and should on no account be neglected
When Master Jiang hangs out his hook, it's the willing fish that gets caught
Kill with borrowed knife
The fourth Chinese rule: cross the river by feeling for the stones
Who could say it was gain or loss when the old man lost his horse?
The fifth Chinese rule: know yourself and know the other and you'll survive a hundred battles.
