Tan Sitong's famous sayings:

1. High clouds have always gathered in this city, and the autumn wind has scattered the sound of horse hooves. The rivers and fields are still unruly, and the mountains enter Tongguan to resolve the injustice.

2. The flow of life and death is not worth it, and the world turns upside down suddenly. And rejoicing in ruthlessness becomes liberation, and wanting to pursue the past has become a blur. The aconite in the tung flower courtyard is white, and the fragrant grass in Tingzhou is red with tears of wild geese. The golden ring in the next life passed by with a flick of the finger, and the sky was filled with color and empty space.

3. The wild smoke in Hunan is light, and the hibiscus falls in the evening. The sweet-scented osmanthus blooms in the autumn garden, and the cool dew changes at night. The fragrance is full and disperses with the clouds, and people return to take advantage of the bright moon. Who knows the meaning of the small mountains, melancholy spreads all over Jiangcheng!

4. Reforms in various countries are all based on bloodshed...

5. There are many strong winds in the desert, and the vastness is vast around you. The setting sun sets over the plains, and the shadows of the people are long. Holding the sword and drinking wine, the sad song is generous. He traveled far and wide with his hair tied up, and fought in all directions. Heaven and earth will not be destroyed, and separation and union will remain constant. The dust of the car is gone, but the journey is far away and can be forgotten.

6. The windlass roars, the autumn wind blows late, and the cold sun sets in the desolate autumn garden. The windlass rumbles, the well water is cold, and a stream of people cries over the well railing at midnight. The mandarin ducks are haggard and not in pairs. Two females and one male sing loudly. How long is the cry, flying into the silver pond. The silver pond is shallow and green with knots. When the water in the pond dries up, it will never be drained. The melancholy soul howls at night with the missing moon low, startling the crows on the top of the city. There is a crow at the head of the city, and Yuanyang Lake is where people drink water. I once saw the mandarin ducks walking around under the lotus, forgetting that Luofu still had a husband. The husband pecks the male in anger, where will he live when he goes away? He returns gracefully and closes up in this secluded boudoir. How long has it been since the secluded boudoir disappeared? Does Mr. Qin Gong in Huali know? It is not as good as one hill for eternity and three hundred poems together. The people in the secluded boudoir went away and the lights were silent, revealing the curtains wet with tears. The wishes of the same acupuncture point are actually fulfilled, and the spring breeze makes the earth and flowers green every year. There is no need for lotus for the peduncle, no wood for the joints, and the same bunch of bones for thousands of years.

7. In my time, things are blurred. I dare not tell who will die in the Central Plains. I refine my bones to the ice and sky, and temporarily teach you a good sentence to open my eyebrows. Singing and crying for no reason because of the long night, the yin and yang of greedy tail prevail at this time. I had an appointment and heard the chickens dancing together. I turned around in front of the lamp and hated the late sound.

8. A friend was boating in Hengyang, but the wind capsized the boat. The son was ten years old on the boat, and he was dragging the boat into the harbor. The wind caused the boat to retreat, and he was dragging the boat with him. The son was crying and did not let go of the rope. The soldier was dragging the boat into the harbor. The two metacarpal bones of the son were visible.

9. The family and the country are both in sorrow, but people and nature are in a state of brilliance. I am alone in my heart, watching you for thousands of years. There are only a few traces of dreams in the world, and there are thousands of lotuses in the dust. Later, I paid tribute to this mountain and river.

10. Reforms in various countries are all based on bloodshed.

11. People with lofty ideals lament the passing of water, while those with lofty ideals lament the wind and cold. Even if the wind is cold, you will still be warm, and the water will never return! Besides, I am not a comrade, we are thousands of miles away. The cables are removed and weeping before we say goodbye, the grass is green and resting. The road to repair is vast and endless, and the shapes and forms are cut off. Why should I wear light clothes and sew my clothes into silk gauze? Why do you look so strong and beautiful? The sword is knotted with lilac. How can I express my thoughts and feelings with the coral branches of the East China Sea? Why comfort the vast distances, cultivate diligently and cherish the short days. When there is no continuation of the love affair, the good times will be strong. Sing for you, dance for you, act like your brother, don’t suffer for yourself.

12. The autumn night is green, the rooster crows and the sky is rainy and frosty. The stars are white for thousands of miles, and the city is cool with drum horns. The stirrup shows off the new ship, and the phosphorus crows on the old battlefield. The green hills will never change, and personnel expenses will rise and fall.
