1. Everyone is destined to die. It may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather.

It comes from the "Report to Ren An" written by Sima Qian of the Western Han Dynasty. In the article, Sima Qian described his misfortune with extreme anger, expressed the infinite pain in his heart, and boldly exposed the moodiness and willfulness of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He put forward the view of life and death that "everyone is destined to die, either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather", and showed his unyielding fighting spirit of being willing to endure humiliation in order to realize his valuable ideals.

2. Since ancient times, no one has ever died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history.

It comes from "Crossing the Lingding Ocean" by Wen Tianxiang of the Song Dynasty, which means who has been able to live forever since ancient times? I want to leave a piece of patriotic loyalty reflected in the annals of history.

"Crossing Lingding Ocean" is a poem written by Wen Tianxiang, a minister of the Song Dynasty, when he passed Lingding Ocean in 1279. The last two sentences are the author's unhesitating choice about his own destiny. The whole poem expresses the impassioned patriotic enthusiasm, high moral character and integrity, as well as the outlook on life of sacrificing one's life for righteousness.

3. Live as a hero, and die as a ghost.

It comes from "Summer Quatrains" by Li Qingzhao of the Song Dynasty, which means that you should be a hero among men when you are alive, and you should be a hero among ghosts after death. The author's language is astonishing and speaks directly from his heart. He proposes that people should "be born as heroes", make contributions to the country and serve the court; "die" should also be "ghost heroes", and only then can they be worthy of being a good man who stands upright. The deep patriotism burst out and shocked people's hearts.

4. Don’t be afraid of being shattered into pieces, but stay innocent in the world.

It comes from Yu Qian's "Song of Lime" in the Ming Dynasty, which means that even if your body is broken into pieces, you are not afraid, and you are willing to leave your innocence in the world. This poem literally chants about lime, but actually uses objects to describe people and expresses the poet's noble ideals and integrity, his positive and enterprising attitude towards life, and his fearless and awe-inspiring righteousness.

5. Despite the hardships, you are still tenacious, no matter how strong the wind is.

It comes from "Bamboo and Stone" written by Zheng Xie in the Qing Dynasty, which means that the body and bones are still strong despite being hit by thousands of blows, no matter how strong the wind blows from east to west, north and south. This poem praises the strength and tenacity of Yanzhu, implying the author's strong character of defying common opinion.
