Death and life are looked on
As but transformations;
The myriad creation is all of a kind,
There is a kinship through all.

Huainanzi (139 BCE-?), The Huainanzi is an ancient Chinese text that consists of a collection of essays that resulted from a series of scholarly debates held at the court of Liu An, Prince of Huainan, sometime before 139 BC. The Huainanzi blends Daoist, Confucianist, and Legalist concepts, including theories such as yin and yang and Wu Xing theories.
