Chuang Tzu (Burton Watson translation):
The fish trap exists because of the fish; once you’ve gotten the fish, you can forget the trap.
The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit; once you’ve gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare.
Words exist because of meaning; once you’ve gotten the meaning, you can forget the words.
Where can I find the man who has forgotten words so I can have a word with him?
