Belief as the premise of freedom

The reason of legal people and the emotions of most people

"The road to hell has built the bricks for mankind to build heaven. Never Looking forward to the emergence of absolute justice in secular society." - Western Proverb

If power can always jump beyond the law, then people will either be obsessed with the glory of the will to power, or they will be impassioned with the heart of a knight.

In an era lacking reverence, there is no bottom line for human depravity. … When people dissolve the value of good in the name of tolerance and progress, and moral relativism becomes rampant in the world, society loses absolute right and wrong. “What exists is reasonable,” and all evil is possible. On the one hand, we complain and accuse, but on the other hand, we are complicit in sin. Everyone is looking for excuses for their sins. People have too many reasons and too many compulsions to absolve themselves of their sins.

The collapse of value makes people lose the wrong coordinates.

"An open society is like an open mouth. It has something solid to bite when it closes." - Chesterton

The dignity of life

“The reason for all our misfortunes lies in the natural misfortune of our fatally fragile human condition; it is so tragic that when we think about it carefully, Nothing can comfort us." - Pascal

"Seeing pain brings pleasure, but causing pain to others brings greater pleasure." - Nietzsche

We either find the present moment of various attempts in search of salvation, or we abandon the present moment and seek salvation elsewhere.

Love should always feel indebted, and guests should always be entertained.

The reason why people are afraid is because we are afraid of the unknown.

The more we try to plan our time according to established plans, the more we will resent unexpected events.

If you keep an open mind to the unknown, and are called upon to live in pleasant indifference, life may be extremely happy.

"We think of poverty as hunger, lack of clothing, and lack of housing. However, the greatest poverty is not being wanted, not being loved, and not being cared for." - Mother Teresa

Many times people don't know how to choose. You either follow moral guidance or live according to the will of the country. Individual freedom that ignores moral constraints and the national will that ignores moral constraints are just two sides of the same coin.

"We are on a stage not chosen by us, and we perform a script not chosen by us." - Ebihotide

"If you understand in advance what you are going to face I wonder if you will still have the courage to come? What you see and hear often makes you depressed? "——"Wu Wen Xi Dong"

"If you don't know life, how can you know death? "——Confucius

With eternity in mind? Live in the present

"Man is born free, but he is always in chains."——Rousseau

"We are born free. Disappointment must be accepted, because disappointment is limited, but we can never give up hope, because hope is infinite." - Martin Luther King

For the farewell party - to the readers of this book<. /p>

We are limited, so we don’t need to pretend to be powerful.

We are shallow, so there is no need to pretend to be wise.

Our biggest risk is that we easily ignore the nature of vanity, which will once again lead us into the abyss of absurdity.
