Zhao Puchu received Confucian education from a young age, which focused on the 'socially engaged' practice. Many Confucian moralities were embodied in Zhao's conduct. This quotation is taken from the chapter Zilu in the classic The Analects of Confucius. The weighty restraint in his calligraphy was articulated by the supple brush tip and moist effect of strokes. It reflected the calligrapher's strict code of conduct.
