3, the source: "Laozi" "Holding the wood, born at the end; Nine-story platform, starting with tired soil; A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. "

1, pronounced as bē i shu ǐ ch ē xn.

2. Interpretation: Save a firewood-burning car with a glass of water. Metaphor is useless, futile and can't solve the problem.

3, the source: "Mencius Gao Zi Shang": Mencius said: "Benevolence is better than cruelty, water is better than fire. Today, being a benevolent person is still a fire with a cup of machinery and a car salary; If it doesn't go out, it's called water can't go out. This is the same as those who are inhuman, and will eventually die. "

Benevolence is better than inhumanity, just as water is better than fire. Now he is kind, just like lighting a glass of fire with a cart of firewood; If it doesn't go out, it means that water can't fight fire. This is in harmony with unfriendly things and will eventually be lost.
