8.30

肇曰:言一欲以去二,不言一也。言無欲以去有,不言無也。而惑者聞一則取一相,聞無則取無相,故有二焉。

[Seng]zhao says: Speaking of 'one' is intended to discard 'two'; it does not mean there is oneness. Speaking of 'nothing' is intended to discard 'existence'; it does not mean there is nothingness. Yet the deluded, hearing 'one', grasp at the characteristic of one, and hearing 'nothing', grasp at the characteristic of nothingness; hence there is duality.
