“The secret of mountain climbing is to walk slowly, so that you will not tire, and to put down your feet on level spots, so that you will not stumble. This one should know.” The quote is written in calligraphy by an important government official and poet during the Qing Dynasty, Qian Feng (1740-1795) who is remembered for his courage in speaking out against corruption in high places. On this scroll, Qian Feng recorded words which Sima Guang (1019-1086 CE), a Song-dynasty historian and conservative politician, had inscribed at the top of a mountain.
