People who are generous by nature often have wrong ideas because of generosity, and often get lost because they are too lenient with their enemies or trust their friends too much. .....

12 The most beautiful time for a woman is when she stands in front of the cradle; The most sincere and solemn time is when she is holding a baby or taking a walk with a child of four or five years old; The happiest time, as I saw in a western portrait, was when I was holding a baby and sleeping on a pillow to tease. -"The Art of Living"

Whoever tells the truth will hurt it; Anyone who tries to prove that it is disabled will distort it; Anyone who puts a sign on it and identifies a school will kill it instead; Anyone who claims to believe it will bury it.

Men like to eat in the bedroom and sleep in the dining room. -Jin Shengtan's physiology
