From R.H. Blyth:
“…there is a danger that the paradox may be taken as overstepping the mark, as exaggeration for the sake of effect, in answer to the overweening claims of the reason. Such is not the case. To repeat, there is both a shadow and is not a shadow beneath the pine tree. The paradox merely states one of these matters of fact, reason the other.”
