People can't make friends without addiction, because there is no affection, and people can't make friends without delusion, because there is no true qi. It means: imagine that if a person has no hobbies, is not interested in anything and has nothing in front of him, then he is ignorant, impetuous and has no real feelings. Pushing things and people around, how good can it be for things and people? Such a person is certainly not worth socializing with.

Tao An's Dream is a collection of essays by Zhang Dai. Zhang Dai (1597 ——1679), an essayist in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, was born in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, with the name Zong Zi and Shi Gong, whose real name was Tao An, and whose alias was Diean Jushi.

In Tao An Meng Yi, he wrote a story: One year, he went to the waterway of Yanzhou, and at night he parked his boat on the mountain, where there was an ancient temple. When the moon was clear and the mountains were clear, Zhang Dai became interested, told the boy to change his costume and sang in front of the Buddha statue in the temple all night. At dawn, the master and servant went down the mountain, untied the cable and crossed the river.

The monks in the temple followed furtively down the mountain, and the boat had rowed to the middle of the river, still looking around in the clouds and fog, wondering whether it was a man or a ghost on board. Zhang Dai is frank and interesting, and the monk's probing is rare and strange, which makes people laugh. Therefore, Zhang Dai has a famous saying: "People can't make friends without addiction, because they are heartless, and people can't make friends without delusion, because they have no true qi."
