《淮南子·精神训》
所以就是生死这样的大事都不能使他有所变化；就是天翻地覆也都不能使他有所变动。
是故死生亦大矣，而不为变，虽天地覆育，亦不与之掺抱矣。
So even major events like life and death cannot cause him to change; even a complete upheaval of heaven and earth cannot make him change.
<s>[INST] Analyze the grammatical structure of the following Classical Chinese sentence and provide its English translation: 昔者：莊周夢為胡蝶，栩栩然胡蝶也。自喻適志與。不知周也。俄然覺，則蘧蘧然周也。不知蝶也。 [/INST] Grammatical analysis: The sentence consists of two parallel clauses with the same structure. The first clause describes Zhuang Zhou dreaming of being a butterfly, and the second clause describes him waking up and realizing that he is no longer a butterfly. The use of the particle "然" at the end of each clause indicates an exclamation or emphasis. The repetition of the words "周" and "蝶" in the two clauses creates a sense of confusion and disorientation, which reflects the main theme of the story: the difficulty of distinguishing between dreams and reality. English translation: Once upon a time, Zhuang Zhou dreamed that he was a butterfly, a carefree butterfly, flying about at his leisure. He enjoyed himself thoroughly, forgetful of his existence as Zhuang Zhou. Suddenly he awoke, and there he was, lying in bed - Zhuang Zhou once more. He did not know whether he was Zhuang Zhou who had dreamt of being a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming that it was Zhuang Zhou.</s>
