>>18440472Non-Chinese speakers don't really get how extremely poetic Chinese speech is. Half the numbered names in Chinese historiography are basically brief couplets.Most of these events are summarized in two two-syllable names with a very consistent meter-scheme.Seriously:>Hundred Schools of ThoughtIn Chinese: (Zhū-zǐ Bǎi-jiā)>Rebellion of the Three GuardsSān Jiàn zhī Luàn>Upheaval of the Five BarbariansWǔ-hú luàn-huá>Hundred Flowers CampaignBǎi-huā Qí-fàng>Spring and Autumn Period.Chūn-qiū shí-dài>Warring States PeriodZhàn-guó shí-dài

>>18440472>Another remarkable trait of Chinese psychology: the complete indifference to the idea of quantity and the total disregard for any quantitative measurement in Chinese philosophical thinking (except in the philosophy of the short-lived Legalist school).>Each philosophy has its own mathematical concepts, each culture its own way of portraying the outer world of nature with the help of numbers—the most rigorous signs of delimitation and demarcation which human cultures have yet devised. The mathematics of the Classical Greeks was geared to the perception of magnitudes, that of the West Europeans to the perception of dynamic motion and function. >The Chinese, on the other hand conceived of numbers as emblems, the most essential and indispensable of all because of their multiple utilizations and great efficiency. Emblematic numbers are used to classify Times and Spaces, and then to qualify the very same elements according to strict hierarchy. The same dislike—indeed, deliberate incomprehension—of the Chinese for the infinite made them conceive the universe, the cosmic totality of heaven and earth, as closed, finite. All numbers, serving as convenient labels for the ordering of things within a finite universe, are perforce limited.
