From "Mozi": "Regarding what has been inscribed on bamboo and silk, engraved on gold and stone, or carved on a plate, future generations will know." 2. From "Zhao Bian's Travel to Qingcheng Mountain": "A good craftsman retains old strokes, the old man polishes new poetry." 3. From "Su Shi's Harmony with Zhang Langzhong on Spring Writing": "Sipping the wine, the blush rises, intricately refining the lyrics."
