Thursday Poem | 3 Quarks Daily
. The name that can be named is not the eternal name. The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth. The named is the mother of ten thousand things.” —Lao Tzu in The Tao Te Ching 73 Morning is an abstract thing, it exists, but is not a thing. Here, at this hour, we’re beginning to see the sun. If the morning light on the trees is beautiful, It’s just as beautiful whether we call the morning “beginning to see the sun” That’s why there’s no advantage in giving things the wrong name, Or indeed giving them names at all.
