Sun said: "Cursive to make the turn for the form of quality, dots and paintings for the temperament. That is to say, the cursive form of the body to make the main turn, the body of the word from a momentum, "grass good to make the turn, can not become a word." Its make turn taboo horizontal and vertical, angular, so the movement of the cursive dots and lines more arc shape, this is the speed and smoothness of the pen inevitably produced by the law of the pen.
