Learning method: From the east to the sea, when will the rivers return to the west? The children's nest is panic? The boss is sad. (Han Yuefu "Long Song Xing") To learn a hundred things, one must first make a determination. (Zhu Xi) The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. The pen falls in the storm, and the poem becomes weeping ghosts and gods. (Du Fu) If you don't care about Fengya, I will be your teacher. (Du Fu) Learning attitude: After learning, you will know your shortcomings; after teaching, you will know your difficulties. If you know your shortcomings, you can reflect on yourself; if you know your difficulties, you can improve yourself. ——Confucius (a thinker and educator in the Spring and Autumn Period) quoted from "Book of Rites." "Study Notes" When you are young, you are eager to learn, like the rising sun; when you are strong, you are eager to learn, like the light in the sun; when you are old, you are eager to learn, like the brightness of a candle. ——Liu Xiang (Confucian scholar and writer of the Western Han Dynasty) quoted from "Shuo Yuan" The one who sees a lot is knowledgeable, the one who hears a lot is wise, the one who refuses advice is blocked, and the one who focuses on himself is lonely. ——Huan Kuan quoted from "Salt and Iron Theory". "Proposal" If a person's ambition is not far away and his mind is absent, he will not succeed in learning. ——Zhang Zai (Northern Song Dynasty philosopher) quoted from "Confucian Classics." "Principles of Principles" Insight into worldly matters is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is all articles. ——Cao Xueqin (literary writer of the Qing Dynasty) quoted from Chapter 5 of "Dream of Red Mansions" Cultivating oneself and being a good person: A lack of virtue cannot bring people success, and a lack of magnanimity cannot bring peace to people. (Liu Ji, Ming Dynasty) If someone is appointed without virtue, then the officer is not enough to encourage people to be virtuous; if someone is rewarded without merit, then reward is not enough to encourage meritorious service. (Song Dynasty? Li Gou) Let him be three points, how free he is, how patient he is for a moment, how leisurely he is to cultivate virtue, and he wants to have thoughts of wood and stone. If you are greedy, you will be in danger. (Ancient Couplet) People are not sages, how can anyone have no faults? If you can change your past, there is no greater good.
