Here is man and woman, one and the other. But actually, what does exist is the unity of man and woman. The unity of man and woman exists, but if you separate man from woman, there’s no more woman or man. Because there is man, there is woman. Because there is river, there is ship.
“Earth Ship” by Mayumi Oda
