The book holds that human nature is evil, gives a cold insight into social life, summarizes the dark phenomena in many aspects of society and shows them to readers coldly.
Combining Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, it is very philosophical to explain the truth of being a man. You can speak after reading augmented, and you can go to the world after reading kindergarten? .
Let's take a look at the most classic and profound epigrams in this book for your reference.
I can't completely throw away all my heart: the classic four sentences of the famous book "Augmenting the Sage" see through the essence of social interaction.
Life: it's easy to meet each other, but it's hard to leave for a long time.
When people meet for the first time, they always try their best to show their best side to each other and leave a good impression on each other.
So there is a saying that if life is like the first time, it is actually because everyone just wants to show the best side to each other at that time, just like adding a filter, which is almost perfect, but with the extension of time, this illusion is slowly broken.
Not hard to understand, because? Perfect? Your appearance is fake, but people always show their true side in front of familiar people. For example, you are as beautiful as a picture in front of outsiders. In fact, who knows that you are a stingy person at home, and the chaotic people at home are out of control?
Another example is that you are affable, humble and polite to outsiders. Who knew you were a bossy person at home?
In the conversation between people, don't say the actual situation or facts.
Don't talk too much. Stop it.
Everyone must have heard of the idiom "if you talk too much, you will lose it". It's wrong to talk too much and not know which words will offend people.
In addition to the above, don't convince others easily, always give advice to others, and there will definitely be a rollover, which is what the saying goes: mind your own business. If it is solved, others may not appreciate you, but if it is not solved well, others will certainly blame you.
Another situation is that you don't listen to other people's secrets and don't tell your own secrets. The more you know, the more you think, the more you think, and the more confused you are. Once you tell your secret to others, just like telling the wind, the wind will tell the whole forest.
Another situation is that no matter how deep your friendship is, you can't talk too deeply, because friends also have friends.
Blame others, blame yourself; If you forgive yourself, forgive others.
This sentence is similar to being strict with yourself and being lenient with others. ? Be strict with yourself and be lenient with others.
You can treat yourself with high standards and strict requirements, but don't apply yours to others, because everyone has their own set of standards. Maybe you will do better according to your standards, but it may exceed the ability limit of others.
Just like a sentence in The Great Gatsby: Whenever you want to criticize others, you should remember that not all people in this world have the advantages you have.
Moreover, when people encounter mistakes, they always want to excuse themselves and give many reasons to prove that they didn't mean it. When others make mistakes, they always criticize others and make trouble for no reason, so it is not easy to maintain healthy interpersonal relationships.
