Conversations of the Taoist Master Fu Hsiang

Men Chow: You may rely on me to keep my patience until the knot is untied. Even if our discourse takes us to strange places, I shall not give up, but I will follow the motions of your mind.

Tsia Tung: And I too.

Fu Hsiang: Well spoken, for patience and courage are the qualities we need in pursuit of true philosophy. Nor must we refrain from accepting a conclusion if calm and clear reason delivers it to us. You are both prepared to follow the argument to its destination. Let us meet again after the next lesson to continue our investigations.
