A villager came to the Master and said, “In my small village, there are only three girls of marriageable age: one is silent and quiet and almost like a doll, one is arrogant and cruel, and the third is much older, and a sot. Which one should I marry?”
The Master replied, “If this is what Heaven has provided you for women, perhaps it is Heaven’s way of saying that you were fated to be a mountain hermit (隱士), as the Daoists do.”
