There is a saying called "the sky is dark, so live in the dark;"

? What this friend asked was Nelson, the Nobel Peace Prize winner and black leader of South Africa? Mandela (July 18, 1918-December 5, 213) said. I believe readers have all heard of this hero. He was imprisoned for 27 years in pursuit of national equality and fighting for the rights of blacks.

? About this passage, some people on the Internet said that it was not written by Mandela, because the corresponding English could not be found, and another reason was said by Ji Ye, the director and dubbing director of Phoenix Satellite TV, which originated from "Weibo of Ji Ye" and appeared in 212. None of these reasons can be established.

? In order to find out who said it, I spent a long time searching for information, and finally decided that the copyright of this passage should belong to Mandela. The reason is:

? 1. In recent years, in the official publications, it is said that Mandela said it. I believe that these experts and scholars will not make irresponsible remarks when writing books. Many books I have checked clearly say that Mandela said it. Let's send a picture to prove it-

? 2. If the copyright really belongs to Jiye, why is it that such a popular quotation is publicly labeled as "Mandela", but Jiye doesn't say a word, but just a few fans say it's from Jiye's Weibo? I went to "Weibo of Ji Ye" specially, and it is still being updated. Most of the recent updates are in a few words, and one of them is a quote from Jackie Chan. If you don't pay attention to it, it will make some careless fans think it is a season!

? 3. Mandela had a rough experience and had a profound understanding of society, so he left many similar famous sayings or quotations. Before Mandela's death, his books were published in China. In 21, his autobiography, Long Walk to Freedom, and a book, Quotations from Mandela, were published. Later, a film based on his autobiography was also shown in China, and it was called Long Road of Life.

? Because there are different opinions about who said this passage, I made a correction by the way. Let's get down to business and analyze the connotation of this quotation. Read the original words first:

? "If the sky is dark, then live in the dark; If it is dangerous to make a sound, then keep silent; If you feel powerless to shine, then curl up in the corner. But don't get used to the darkness and defend it; Don't be complacent for your own sake; Don't laugh at people who are braver and more enthusiastic than themselves. We can be humble as dirt, but we can't be twisted like maggots. "

? This passage consists of three sentences, expressing three meanings-

? The first sentence is what to do if a person is unhappy, unhappy, depressed, low in life, or in trouble or adversity. This sentence sets three situations: the first situation is to live tenaciously in the dark, that is, in the predicament, because only by living can we get out of the predicament. This tells us that people should adapt to the environment and change from time to time, that is, they should change themselves according to the changes of the situation, so as to adapt to the times and respond to the situation; The second situation is to be good at keeping silent, that is, not talking, not making a sound, and not expressing one's views. In some cases, it is useless to talk too much, so you must learn to shut up. Sometimes, not talking is also a kind of wisdom. The third situation is to do nothing and do nothing, that is, to compromise.

? The three situations in the first sentence express a bottom line of being a man, that is, a minimum of being a man, that is, at least you can only do it this way, otherwise you will cross the bottom line of being a man and your life will be "stale" and "discolored".

? The second sentence corresponds to the three situations that need to be avoided in the first sentence, that is, you can't sing praises for the harsh environment you are in, you can't drag your feet for yourself, and you can't stumble and hold back the brave pioneers. In short, people can't be insensitive in a difficult situation, let alone behave badly for the tiger and collude with evil forces. At least, they have to "get out of the mud without being stained" and keep an honest and clean life.

? The third sentence is a summary of the previous two sentences, that is to say, in any case, a person can live a negligible life, but never be an abominable villain who harms others and society!

? This passage is a deep understanding of life and draws a bottom line for life. Due to the different circumstances of life, people's attitudes towards certain personnel will be different, especially people's different positions, which determines that people have different attitudes and perspectives on problems. This is the so-called "ass determines the head". This is also a normal phenomenon. However, to express different views and attitudes, we must take the bottom line of not harming others and society, and we must never gain our own benefits by harming the interests of others.

? For example, in the recent incident of beating people in Tangshan barbecue restaurant, people, out of indignation, came out to speak out, condemning the perpetrators and supporting the victims. This is the embodiment of people's sense of justice. In particular, some people bravely stand up and testify, or even report under their real names, which actually risks retaliation, but they still dare to speak out without fear of risks. This is a brave man who dares to stand up in the face of risks. Of course, some people are afraid of risks and choose silence, which is beyond reproach. However, for some unknown purpose, a few people not only don't condemn the perpetrators, but instead accuse the victims, saying that the battered women should not go out for a barbecue at midnight. Speaking without conscience in this way violates the bottom line of being a man, and eventually ends up being punished.
