1, light commitment but short message
It means: people who make promises easily must rarely keep them.
From "Lao Zi"
A husband who makes a light promise will be treacherous, and it is better to do more than one thing.
Interpretation: Don't make promises easily. Once you make a promise, you must earnestly fulfill it. Those who often easily agree to each other's demands must rarely keep their promises!
2. Fail to keep your promise.
It means: people who break their promises are untenable in society.
From Zuo Zhuan. Twenty-two years of "xianggong"
3. A small letter is a big letter.
It means: If you keep faith in every little thing, you can build a great reputation.
From "Everything is done by Han Feizi, Foreign Stores Say Left"
Original sentence: Without a small letter, there must be a big letter, so knowing the Lord accumulates in the letter. If you don't believe in rewards and punishments, the ban won't work.
Interpretation: If you keep your promise in every little thing, you can build a good reputation. Therefore, if you keep your word for a long time, there must be a wise king. If the monarch is dishonest about rewards and punishments, then the ban cannot be implemented.
