One: Examples about "gold always shines";
1: When the old Rousseau left his lonely figure on the Golden Avenue of the Champs, he stayed in the maple white When the woods were left in the grass on the outskirts of Paris, almost everyone thought that he had lost his grace and had completed his peak life and was born to go to the garden of heaven. No one cares about this old man, and no one explores whether there is still a spark in his heart that once captivated a generation. No one pays attention to what this lonely man will leave to the times. However, excellence does not disappear because it is abandoned or buried. Rousseau used his soul full of life and blood to unleash all his potential, and left behind unparalleled masterpieces with his philosopher's thoughts and ideas. So I say that Rousseau is a wise man who truly knows himself and controls himself, because he knows that calm volcanoes often erupt with amazing energy;
2: Together with Rousseau, he is considered the "great European leader" Voltaire, who had a conscience, was born in poverty in his early years, spent time in the Bastille, was exiled in the British Isles, and was severely beaten with sticks by hooligans instigated by his political and love rivals. However, all this did not destroy this confident man. His mind was filled with four words: believe in yourself. It was nothing but a blockbuster. What Voltaire ignited was a single spark that set the entire wasteland ablaze. He may mediate with the royal family, or conceal religion. Sometimes he enlightened the people with the "Philosophical Correspondence", and sometimes he summoned his colleagues with the "Encyclopedia". He used wisdom, thinking, laughter and reason to pave the way for freedom, and finally realized his life ideal of "eliminating the scum".
