Be careful again and again First, don't cheat your heart. Life in the Year of the Tiger is still close, but people are familiar with each other. Saying right and wrong is right and wrong.

What needs to be paid attention to again and again is not to deceive yourself. You can get close to tigers you haven't seen before, but you can't get too close to people you know well. Those who spread right and wrong everywhere are those who sow discord.

Extended data:

Zengguang Xianwen is a children's enlightenment bibliography compiled in Ming Dynasty. The vast majority of sentences come from classics and history, poems and songs, operas and novels, and miscellaneous notes of scholars, and their thoughts directly or indirectly come from Confucian and Taoist classics. In a broad sense, it is a popular version of "classic" that appeals to both refined and popular tastes. "Glory and Contribution" is a collection of proverbs and aphorisms of China from ancient times to the present. Later, it became what it is now after the continuous supplement of scholars in Ming and Qing Dynasties.

On the surface, augmented sages seem disorganized, but as long as you read the whole book carefully, it is not difficult to find its internal logic. This book's understanding of human nature is based on the Confucian Xunzi's "theory of evil nature" and gives a cold insight into social life.
