I wish to speak but lips can shape no voice,
More quotes by Tao Yuanming
God can only set in motion:
He cannot control the things he has made.
I would gladly wander in Paradise,
But it is far away and there is no road.
I beg you listen to this advice —
When you get wine, be sure to drink it.
The pure air
is cleansed of lingering lees
And mysteriously,
Heaven's realms are high.
