4. Don't think that there is this and there is that. Don't think that reputation is credibility. Don't think that happiness comes from achievement. Don't think that with power, you have prestige. Don't think that if you do this thing well, you will do the next thing well. Don't deceive yourself with fantasy soap bubbles, don't chase the shadows in your dreams, don't listen to books and shed tears and feel sorry for yourself, don't entangle your great life and great youth in the same hypocrisy as a pot of porridge and a pot of thin paste, and don't think that obscure and somewhat beautiful words can turn vulgarity into nobility and embellish smallness into greatness. Don't let the stupid chirp blind your eyes.

8. I often hear people lament that there is no Washington in China, but what if there is no Washington? Just because there is no past doesn't mean there will be no future. Just because others don't do it doesn't mean you can't do it. Even if you can't be Washington, you can still be Martin Luther King, you can't be Martin Luther King, you can still be Rosa Parks. You can't be Rosa parks, you can still be the one who applauds them.

9. The encounter between all people and books is, in the final analysis, the encounter between people. We are grateful for books, and we are also grateful for the specific life hidden behind books. Whether they are alive or dead, the significance of books lies in expanding or prolonging their lives and meeting us by fate.

10, the world is like a square. If you only know the left and right, but forget to look from a height, it is difficult for you to find your own direction. When, when you can transcend the sufferings of the times and the crowd, you can measure your life from your own heart, and you can be free.
