天網恢々

tenmou kaikai
heaven's net is cast far and wide


an aphorism, obviously, condensed into four characters. that last character, if you've not seen it before, is the equivalent of a ditto mark. it represents a repetition of the character immediately preceding it. I love the image of a celestial net being cast to catch the injust among us and bring them to retribution.
