This sentence originally came from "Historical Records. Taishi Gong's Preface".

"Taishigong's Autobiography" is the last chapter of "Historical Records". It is the preface to "Historical Records" and also the autobiography of Sima Qian. People often call it Sima Qian's self-written biography. Not only a "Historical Records" is summarized here, but also the whole life of Sima Qian can be seen here. The article is vast, magnificent and profound, and is an important material for studying Sima Qian and his "Historical Records".

"Automatic Preface" recounts the origins of Taishi Gong's genealogy. The more than a thousand years of family history from the Chongli family to the Sima family, his father Sima's talk about Chong Lao and Zhuang's academic thoughts, Sima Qian's personal growth experience, his stepfather's ambition to be Taishi Gong, and the beginning and end of his writing of "Historical Records" are all included in the chapter. But the author's eloquent words are well-proportioned and as tiring as a pearl. The narration of Sima Qian's family history of more than a thousand years is only a few hundred words, but the order is neat. On a grand tour of farming and animal husbandry, the image of an upright and upright young man emerges vividly on the page. The father and son held hands and shed tears, entrusting them with history. The scene was so solemn. Before the original work was completed, he was corrupted and tortured, and the angry and unfair words made the readers sigh. In particular, the author uses a considerable amount of space to preface the gist of the Six Schools and discuss the gist of the Six Classics of Taoism, which fully and profoundly reflects the academic thoughts of Sima and his son. The analysis of Confucianism, Mohism, Ming Dynasty, Legalism, Taoism and Yin and Yang schools is incisive and thorough. It points out the gains and losses, and makes a case-by-case conclusion. It has been unparalleled for hundreds of generations.
