I got stories. If I asked why I had to believe some concept, a person like my grandmother might reply with something like, "This is the true because of what happened to the Yellow Emperor," and then the story would follow.

People still say, "It's true because..." before they invoke a story that is more than two thousand years old. -- back cover 650 0 Taoism. 650 0 Philosophy, Chinese|yTo 221 B.C. 650 0 Wisdom. 710 2 Hampton Roads Publishing Company, Inc.,|epublisher.
