Clay is\nfashioned into vessels; but it is on their empty hollowness, that\ntheir use depends. The door and windows are cut out (from the walls)\nto form an apartment; but it is on the empty space (within), that its\nuse depends. Therefore, what has a (positive) existence serves for\nprofitable adaptation, and what has not that for (actual) usefulness.",
