The origin of the motto:

A motto refers to an inscription written and placed on the right side of the seat to warn oneself. Later, it generally refers to the motto of motivating and alerting oneself. "seat right" means the right side of the seat. "Inscription" is a kind of text engraved on an object to describe merits or to warn oneself. Later, it became a literary style, which generally used rhyme and was a type of rhyme or parallel prose.

The direct origin of "motto" is related to Cui Yuan (yuàn) of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cui Yuan's brother Cui Zhang was killed. Cui Yuan killed his enemy and escaped. Later, when he was pardoned, he wrote an inscription to warn himself, and he always placed it on the right side of his seat, so it was called "motto". The allusion of placing the seat on the right to warn oneself is related to Duke Huan of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period. Duke Huan of Lu placed a "quiet device" on the right side of the seat, which is called the "sitting device for pardon". Therefore, "zuoyou" originated from Duke Huan of Lu, and "motto" originated from Cui Yuan.
