1.30

師與密師伯鋤茶園。師擲下钁頭曰:「我今日困,一點氣力也無。」伯曰:「若無氣力,爭解恁麼道得?」師曰:「汝將謂有氣力底是也。」

The Master was hoeing a tea garden with Senior Uncle Mi. The Master threw down his mattock and said, "Today I am exhausted, with not a bit of strength." Uncle said, "If you have no strength, how can you speak like that?" The Master said, "You take the one with strength to be it."
