What Would Confucius Do? What for that matter would Laozi not do? This week on Sinica, Kaiser and Jeremy ask these and other questions of Sam Crane, Professor of Contemporary Chinese Politics at Williams College and author of the new book Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Dao. And given that this show explores uniquely Chinese ideas of how to live a life through right action, and how ancient Chinese philosophy might be applied to contemporary American ethical challenges, we are also delighted to be joined by Jeremiah “Honorable Mencian” Jenne, scholar of Qing history, popular China blogger, and now Director of the IES immersion program.

Too many tops in Toronto, nothing but bottoms in Montreal.
I'm starting to think that it ain't the city, I'll just never find love at all.

Hideaway from it all in Montreal.
Stay in bed with the bugs where the rent is cheap.
Your boss ain't a jerk if you never find work.
If you don't speak French, you can talk to me.

I don't wanna live in Toronto, I don't wanna live in Montreal.
I'm starting to think that it ain't the city, I just don't wanna live at all.
I don't wanna die in Toronto. Please don't let me die in Montreal.
I'm starting to think that it ain't the city, I just ain't ready to die at all.

This love is like a bike ride in the fall: 
I get all dressed up, and then too hot,
and then the sweat just makes me cold.

It can be difficult to tell when love has passed
— like after a storm: the water will shake loose from the leaves,
and it seems it's still raining.

Too many tops in Toronto, nothing but bottoms in Montreal [16th January]

Lazy Butterfly - Devendra Banhart

i didn't sleep last night
could barely close my eyes, 
without blinking
so much on my mind
relative contradictory thinking

what is time, what is true
what am i, what are you
what is yellow mixed with blue
what would buddha do

what is love what is fire
how do i transcend desire
and fly into the sky

zhaungzi sat under a tree
as he smiled at the sun
because his head was empty and he 
had returned to the one

perfect harmony with the tao the now
i call it
It

It is 
It is everything
It is no thing
It is the negation of nothing
It is something

does it seem complex? a paradoxical mess
i digress let's take a breath and reflect
on the absurdity of the phenomena that we subjectively perceive as the objective totality of reality

... it's pretty crazy when you think about it

It is time, It is true
It is i, It is you
It is yellow mixed with blue
It is what buddha would do
It is love, It is fire
It transcends desire

It is the sky....
