Excerpts of famous quotes from letters home <1> Really, Balzac said it well: some sins can only be redeemed, not washed away! <2> In public groups, it is inevitable to rush to tasks and hinder learning. I had expected this. All you have to do is to use your firm will and stance to fight for the leadership tactfully and forcefully. <3> I disapprove of blaming myself without taking action! ...Only facts can prove your intentions, and only actions can show your intentions. <4> Bitter tears are the wine that cultivates your soul. <5> Try to ignore success or failure as much as possible, just try your best and feel no regrets. <6> People spend their whole lives floating in high tides and low tides. Only mediocre people's lives are like a pool of stagnant water; or only those who have extremely high cultivation can be free from fatigue and truly liberated. <7> If the sun is too strong, it will scorch the grains; if the rain is too strong, it will drown the crops. <8> A person can only dare to face reality and face up to mistakes. Use rational analysis to understand thoroughly; in the end, it will not be eroded by memories. <9> The most torturous thing is not mental work, nor physical work. But worry. <10>...Think more about life issues and universe issues. Think of yourself as small. Then it will naturally reduce worries about gains and losses. As a result, your body and mind will feel comfortable, and your work will go smoothly. <11> Life is limited. Your energy is also limited, so you have to take a long-term view to run the marathon well. <12> The ideas of Chinese philosophy and Buddhist ideas require people to control emotions instead of letting emotions control them. <13> If you can arouse the emotions of the audience, make them intoxicated, crying and laughing.

That is your greatest success, and that is when you reach the highest realm of art and life. <14> If a person has no spirituality and only talks about theory, it is also rare for him not to become a modern scholar, a corrupt scholar of the world, and an expert on eight-part essays!

Only by "communication" can we not be rigid, pedantic, sour, and stereotyped; by "communication" can we cultivate integrity, mind, and vision. Only by being "common" can you become "big". If you are not big or broad, you will be in danger of looking at the sky from a well. <15> Artists and administrative work are always incompatible! <16> The purest joy in the world is to appreciate art... <17> Always keep your innocent heart, and you will not fall behind when you grow old. I will always be able to connect with and embrace the innocent hearts of the whole world! <18> Contradiction is a symbol of vitality. <19> Only when the physical body is restrained can spiritual activities be most complete: This is an eternal law. <20> As long as it is advanced experience, the Soviet Union must learn from it, and other Western European capitalist countries must also learn from it. (It was quite difficult to have such "reactionary" thoughts in the 1950s) <21> Our lifelong pursuit, how many generations of people in history have pursued nothing more than perfection. But perfection can never be pursued, because human ideals and fantasies never end. The so-called perfection is like flowers in the water or the moon in the mirror, which is always out of reach. <22> A person's service to the people does not necessarily require standing at a conference to give a speech or doing something earth-shattering. Telling others what he knows and thinks about anytime, anywhere is invisibly sowing seeds for the country. , fertilization, cultivation. <23> If a person wants to do something, he must think carefully beforehand.

Put the old road and the new road in two plates and weigh them carefully. <24> Children, the terrible enemy is not necessarily a ferocious-looking one. A friendly and passionate friendship can sometimes waste a lot of your precious time. Now I am convinced that this is a demonic obstacle.

People who always pay attention to means will inevitably forget the purpose. <26> People who are not "unfeeling" by nature, act like "unfeeling" in their actions, are the most unjust and unreasonable ones. Just like a person who is not naughty plays naughty but ends up suffering a loss, it is the same truth. <27> The minds of the people of the Han and Wei dynasties were closer to the original, rich in flavor, and vast, and they are still remembered endlessly after thousands of years. <28> Art in particular requires hard thinking and meditation, always in a crowd. There will be a lack of opportunities for reflection; thoughts, feelings, and emotions cannot be properly organized and summarized. <29> And after all, there are not many talented people like Taibai, and there are also few people who are passionate.
