Meeting must be made of bamboo, and guests will never be greeted with anger.
-Tang Du Fu's ode to spring bamboo shoots
The green bamboo is half hidden, and the new buds are out of the wall.
The rain washed Juanjuan clean, and the wind blew a fragrance.
-Tang Du Fu's Ode to Bamboo
It is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo.
No meat makes people thin, no bamboo makes people vulgar.
People are thin and fat, but most people are incurable.
-Yu Qian and Shang Lu in Su Song's stone.
Good bamboo green, a spoonful of water for a new year.
-Song Lu, you?
Bamboo power comes from the lack of auspicious similarities, and painters are skilled but difficult to work.
Look carefully at the west wind last night, if you don't go east today.
-"Wind Bamboo" by Xu Ming Wei
Thin leaves and sparse nodes;
Snow is unbreakable, and wind is unbreakable.
