青衫有泪素纸无情
[qīng shān yŏu lèi sù zhĭ wú qíng]
In classical Chinese culture, '青shirt' often refers to scholars or those holding refined status. '青衫有泪' describes tears wetting scholar's robe, indicating sadness or melancholy, especially related to literary figures. '素纸无情' contrasts stark plain paper (or simple life) with a lack of emotion or empathy, overall highlighting a poignant contrast between personal emotional expression and objective world indifference.
