Why don't trees grow and people stand?
Trees have no roots, and people have no ambition. This is a proverb handed down from ancient times in China.

It means that people should have determination, and people without ambition will not succeed. A tree has no roots and no length, and a man cannot stand without ambition. Ambition is faith, and the role of faith in people: faith is the hope in people's hearts, which can arouse people's yearning for good things and inspire people to pursue indomitable things.
