Chinese Swordsmanship - the Art of the Jian - Trans by Scott Rodell

莊子曰：

夫為劍者，示之以虛，

開之以利，後之以發，

先之以至。

Zhuangzi Said:

"The art of the jian is to 

deliberately 

expose a weakness, 

giving the enemy the 

impression they have 

the opportunity to attack. 

Your hand moves after the enemy, 

but your jian strikes first."
