Said by: Teacher Tang Hanyu's Theory
Excerpts from the original text:
Ha ha! It's been a long time since the teacher passed on the Tao! It's hard to be confused! The ancient sages are far away, and they are still in the teacher's question; Today's people are far from saints, and they are ashamed to learn from their teachers. So saints are good for saints, and fools are good for fools. What makes saints holy and fools stupid?
Explanation:
Alas, the (ancient) fashion learning from teachers has not been circulating for a long time, and it is difficult to make people doubt it! Ancient saints, far more than ordinary people, followed teachers and asked for advice; Now ordinary people are far below saints, but they are ashamed to learn from teachers. Therefore, saints are wiser and fools are more stupid. The reason why saints can become saints and fools can become fools is probably because of this.
The tradition of learning from teachers. Man: Above all else. Still: still. Everyone: ordinary people, ordinary people. Be ashamed, feel ashamed.

The author's ideological achievements:
Han Yu devoted himself to the world all his life, with a strong sense of right and wrong, plain and upright character and indomitable attitude. On the one hand, he has been hit repeatedly in the political whirlpool since he entered the officialdom. On the other hand, his aesthetic taste cannot be indifferent and peaceful, showing the peculiar characteristics of resentment, impatience and emotional agitation.
On the one hand, great political pressure greatly aggravated Han Yu's psychological conflict, on the other hand, it pushed the lonely and steep southern scenery to the poet. The interaction between them is an important condition for Han Yu's poetic style to change greatly.
In terms of poetic expression, Han Yu also made bold exploration and innovation, writing poems by writing fu, lavishing and listing, smearing with rich colors, and being poor and tired.
