This sentence has appeared in Chinese textbooks for a long time to publicize the value of hard work. But we have always misunderstood Edison's original intention. There is actually a sentence behind this sentence: but 1% inspiration is the most important, even more important than 99% sweat.
Second, "no rape, no business." -Ancient writing.
The old idiom "no tips, no happiness" has also changed its flavor, and it is called "no rape, no happiness". Meaningless "meaninglessness" comes from the measurement of doing business with ancient rice merchants. In addition to filling the bucket, we should scoop more to make the rice in the bucket more conspicuous. At that time, people who could not be so kind were recognized as not qualified to be businessmen. However, with the rapid decline of morality, "no tipping, no business" has become a veritable "no rape, no business".
Third: silkworms will weave until they die in spring, and candles will drain the wick every night. -Li Shangyin
Today, "the silkworm dies, and the candle burns at night" has become a classic statement describing teachers' lifelong teaching and educating people. In fact, this poem, which was inscribed by Li Shangyin in the Tang Dynasty, is a love poem expressing two of a kind's untimely death. The "silk" of the silk side is homophonic with the "thinking" of acacia, which is compared to loving acacia and crying to death.
Fourth: no poison and no husband. -Ancient word formation
This proverb abused by villain No.1 in TV series is actually a rumor that "less quantity is not a gentleman, more quantity is not a husband". How do men achieve "no poison and no husband"? The poison here may have been misinformed because of similar pronunciation, but the original meaning should be "openness and generosity".
Fifth: He who knows the times is a hero. -Reflection. Shushu. Zhugeliangchuan
Now, the famous saying that "those who know the times care about Jie Jun" has been distorted into mixed opinions and even become an unwise person, which is quite different from the original intention. Knowing the times refers to the situation or trend, that is to say, people who can clearly understand the situation and trend are heroes. It is a compliment to Mr. Wolong in Longzhong, saying that he has never left Longzhong, but he already knows the world trend like the back of his hand, and his opinions are extremely profound.
Sixth: there is no god who rolls dice.
-Einstein
Einstein once said, "God doesn't roll dice." What he said is aimed at quantum physics. There is a very important uncertainty principle in quantum physics, which completely breaks the physics of determinism, and Einstein just supports determinism, which is related to Einstein's religious belief. Einstein was not a fanatical believer, but he always believed in the existence of God (not necessarily the God of a certain religion). He thinks that the concept of uncertainty in quantum mechanics is as incredible as God's dice. That's what he meant.
So, now let's see how our textbook tampered with Einstein's words-it absolutely stunned you. The textbook says: "Einstein opposes quantum physics because he thinks that quantum physicists admit that there is a God who rolls dice, and he is not a real materialist."
Seventh: China is a sleeping lion. Once it wakes up, the whole world will tremble.
-Napoleon
"China is a sleeping lion. Once it wakes up, the whole world will tremble. " Everyone knows that this is a sentence that Napoleon said. We accept this sentence because a great foreigner has such a lofty evaluation of China. As a China people, we are deeply proud. We are also convinced that this sleeping lion woke up and made the world feel the tremor it brought, because the people of China stood up and surprised the world. But for a long time, we didn't know that there was another sentence in the middle of this sentence: "It is sleeping, thank God, let it sleep."
Eighth: We fought the wrong war with the wrong opponent at the wrong time and place.
Bradley
What we knew before was that American imperialism invaded Korea, and Chinese people's Volunteer Army defeated the armed American army in one fell swoop, and won a great victory. We were the first to let the Americans sign the armistice agreement without victory, which greatly destroyed the arrogance of American imperialism and greatly enhanced the prestige of the people. Even Americans say so, and this sentence is proof. However, what Bradley said is based on the premise that "if we expand the war to China, we will be involved in the wrong war with the wrong opponent at the wrong time and place".
Ninth: Being is reasonable.
-Hegel
"Being is rationality", Hegel's "wisdom" is almost familiar to primary school students. Many people are puzzled by it, but they don't really understand it. They think what Hegel means by this sentence is that everything that exists is natural and reasonable, and "existence" is a necessary and sufficient condition for "rationality" (value judgment).
As everyone knows, this misunderstanding probably comes from the fallacy of the translator of the old version of Hegel's works. If I remember correctly, the translation in "Small Logic and Philosophy of Law" read the year before last is: "Everything that is rational is realistic, and everything that is realistic is rational."
Tenth: people can create it, but they can't let it be known.
-Confucius
This famous saying comes from "The Analects of Confucius Qin Bo", "Confucius said that people can make it known". If it is expressed as "Confucius said that the people can be known, but not known", it is a famous saying to promote the political skills of fools.
The Analects of Confucius mainly records the quotations of Confucius, and there is often little connection between contexts. At that time, other punctuation marks had not been invented except sentence breaking. So it may be misunderstood.
If this sentence is corrected to "Confucius said: the people can make it; No, let me know. " It is in the same strain as another famous saying of Confucius, "There is no class in teaching". It also makes the image of Confucius, the first great educator in the history of China, leap from the page. Eleventh: No punishment for doctors-Confucius usually thinks that "no punishment for doctors" means that in ancient China, the legal system was not perfect and fair enough, so senior officials could not be punished after breaking the law. In fact, the original intention of Confucius' sentence is to remind scholars to lead an honest and clean life and not to violate the law and discipline. And once you break the law, you will be tortured, so you should kill yourself quickly and don't lose face.
Excellent study leads to being an official. The Analects of Confucius: "Xia Zi said,' To be an official is to learn, and to learn well is to be an official'." The word "excellent" is often considered to mean "excellent", so it is interpreted as: excellent academic performance, and then promotion. But if the previous sentence is explained in this way, it doesn't make sense: if an official is excellent, he will be chosen to study. The correct meaning of "excellent" is "spare capacity". Scholars translate this sentence into: "A good official has spare capacity to study; Study hard and be an official if you have spare capacity. " Go back on one's word "Mencius": "That's all! Stop it! Being unhappy is even worse. " Mencius recorded such a thing that Zou Guo and Lu Guo insisted that Zou Guo killed 33 officials, and none of the people died for it. Zou Guojun asked Mencius what to do? Mencius said: this is caused by the negligence of officials, the irresponsibility of superiors and the cruelty to the people. Ceng Zi once taught people to be alert, alert, and do to others what you don't want them to do to you. Mencius told Zou Guojun a truth by "breaking his word": How you treat others, others will not repay you. Just like in Buddhism, good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil. "Go back on one's word" is gradually used to mean "people's words and deeds are capricious and inconsistent" and "Mencius": "If the capital is deep, take it from the left and right (through the' source'). "Mencius told his students how to learn. When talking about how to deepen their attainments, Mencius said that the breadth of knowledge and the depth of accumulation are like the two sides can meet water sources. The original meaning is the way of learning, which means that we should pay attention to the depth and breadth of learning, so that we can be handy. Nowadays, "living beyond one's means" is often used in a derogatory sense to satirize people who are smooth and good at speculation. 1, dance knows the shadow, why is it as old as the world? " Looking at the sky, where is it like the world? "or" it's too dangerous on earth (a local official). "habitually associate su Shi with being an official. Positive solution: "the sky is also lonely, more like on the earth." This word just looks at the big picture and feels the life of the universe. From thinking about the universe to missing your loved ones. 2, you ride, I Dai Li, one day we will get off. You carry the load, I straddle the horse, and we will meet for you tomorrow. Old explanation: This ancient Yueguo ballad celebrates friendship, which means "wealth never forgets each other". Positive solution: This is the greeting I wrote when I got along well with my old friends in my later years and saw their superficial humility and inner self-satisfaction. Try to see the students who drive high-end cars today. When they meet a crowded bus, they will stop to say hello. Then, if they are a little addicted to writing, they will go home and write a few words at random on the computer. On the other hand, it is also possible to write the ravings of people who have a bad life and meet successful people. This is not a way to celebrate friendship. " It is not the agreement of naive teenagers to get rich and never forget. In the depths of human nature, the ancients were similar to today. 1, where the grass grows in the sea, turned out to be a sentence of cherishing spring, which was widely used to comfort myself that "there are good things everywhere in the world, so you don't have to hang yourself on a tree". 2. My fair lady, a gentleman is good at walking, and the noun "autumn" is used as the verb "autumn". When the sound is "good", it is pronounced "good".
