a gentleman's famous saying

The Book of Rites University by Dai Sheng in the Western Han Dynasty. Be cautious: Be cautious about your behavior when you are alone. A gentleman should be cautious when he is alone. The word "cautious independence" came from this. A person should maintain a good moral character, without supervision from others, and not for showing others. Those two-faced figures who are duplicitous, duplicitous and have dual personalities should take this famous sentence as a warning.

A gentleman seeks the Tao but not the wealth.

Tang Liu Zongyuan's Official Merchants. Gentleman: A person with high moral standards. Tao: refers to the good deeds that are in line with morality. A gentleman is devoted to seeking morality rather than wealth. The meaning of this sentence does not mean that a "gentleman" should not pursue his own reasonable interests, but emphasizes that when pursuing his own interests, he should follow certain social moral norms, and should not be greedy and unscrupulous at the expense of others. This famous sentence can be used to illustrate that people living in the world should constantly pursue the perfection of their own moral quality, instead of focusing on wealth and wealth all day long, and can also be used to praise those who keep clean and do not seek personal gain.
