“Thus it is clear that no matter whether isolated in the wilds, or in concealment at a distance, or in a double-walled stone house, or separated by intervening obstacles and dangers, there is no place to which a man can escape from God.”
Giles’s selection of poems, fables, and stories from ancient Chinese literature, including works by Confucius, Lao Tzu, and other famous Chinese writers.
