There's another part of the koan at the beginning that goes
Ch'ang-Sha said: "One who sits on top of the 100 foot pole has not quite attained true enlightenment. Make another step forward from the top of the pole and throw one's own body into the 100,000 universes."

July 25:
Speaking of Buddhas and Zen masters, talking about mysteries and marvels, is all saying too much or too little.

While you were walking, recluse, you tell me you have stopped;
But now, when I have stopped, you say I have not stopped.
I ask you, O recluse, about the meaning:
How is it that you have stopped and I have not?
Angulimala, I have stopped forever.
I abstain from violence towards living beings.
But you have no restraint towards things that live.
That is why I have stopped and you have not.

As regards the quietude of the sage, he is not quiet because quietness is said to be good.
He is quiet because the multitude of things cannot disturb his quietude.
