Laotse
 
“By kneading clay you form jars.
1.-3. 2, 3, 11. 21, 12.-14. 22, 23, 18. 33, 19.-21. 34, 35
4. 4, 5, 11. 20, 21, 18. 32, 33
But only their hollow space, the nothing,
4. 11. 18.
enables the filling.
5.-10. 12.-17. 19.-21
6. 10, 11, 9. 14, 15, 16. 26, 27
5. 9, 6. 10, 10. 16, 17, 17. 28, 29
5. 6, 7, 10. 18, 19, 17. 30, 31

From walls, broken up by doors and windows,
you build a house.
But only its cavity, the nothing, gives it its value.


The visible, the existing, gives form to the work.
5.-10. 12.-17. 19.-21
The invisible, the nothing,
gives it essence and sense.”

4. 11. 18.
