san sheng/三生 ("three gives birth") is an excerpt from the ancient Chinese classic tao te ching 道德经, a fundamental philosophical text written in the fourth century BC.

 

The original quote, "一生二,二生三,三生万物", can be translated as: The Dao gives birth to the unified thing (One); the One splits into two opposites (Two); the Two gives birth to another (Three), and the newborn Three produces myriad things.
