易简功夫终久大(易见功夫终久大)

易简工夫终久大，

支离事业竟浮沉。

——陆九渊《鹅湖和教授兄韵》

简单的学说 终能光大长久，

琐碎的理论 终要飘散流去。

"The cosmic principle that initiates all operations in the universe is fundamental and will last, while the discourse of explication - with its excessive emphasis on analytical details - is inconsequential and senseless."

"The Meeting at Swan Lake" by Lu Jiuyuan
