If you want to see a thousand miles away, reach a higher level.

——Wang Zhihuan (a poet of the Tang Dynasty) quoted from "Climbing the Stork Tower"

It is the third watch of the night and the fifth watch of the chickens,

It is when men are studying,

Black-haired people don’t know how to study diligently early,

White-haired people regret studying late.

——Yan Zhenqing (a calligrapher and painter of the Tang Dynasty) quoted from "Encouraging Learning"

Those who have achieved great things and learned great things in ancient and modern times have not passed through three realms: "Last night the west wind withered Standing on a tall building alone among the green trees, you can see the whole road to the end of the world. This is the first realm. "The belt is getting wider and wider, but I don't regret it anymore. I feel haggard because of the loss of my clothes." This is the second realm. "The crowd was looking for him Qianbaidu, but when I turned around, I suddenly saw that person in a dimly lit place." This is the third realm.

——Quoted by Wang Guowei (scholar of the Qing Dynasty) from "New Notes on Human Words"

Young people don’t know how to study hard, and when you are old you will regret that you were late in studying.

Read the book a hundred times, and its meaning will become apparent.

I don’t get tired of reading old books hundreds of times. If you read them carefully and think deeply, you will know yourself.

Read thousands of volumes and write like a master.
