Japan
Even in Kyoto — hearing the cuckoo's cry — I long for Kyoto.
Nothing in the cry of cicadas suggests they are about to die.
Do not follow in the footsteps of the old masters, but seek what they sought — and find it in the mountains, the rivers, and the open sky.
Example is the best lesson there is.
Come forth into the light of things, let Nature be your teacher.
Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.
