Throughout the sages' countries and families, they became thrifty and lost to luxury.
Looking at all the countries and nations in front, success is due to thrift, and failure is due to luxury.
2. Wei Yuan, a thinker in Qing Dynasty, wrote the book "Conquering and Governing".
Treat the body with fine lines, not take people with fine lines.
A gentleman should be strict with himself from every detail, but he will not be obsessed with the flaws in other people's behavior.
3. The History of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Shuchuan, the First Master of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Bei
Don't do it because of small evils, and don't do it because of small goodness.
Don't think bad things are small, don't think good things are small, and don't do them.
4. Yue Fei in Southern Song Dynasty
Original: righteousness can follow righteousness, and autonomy can follow governance.
Only by looking at yourself correctly can you do a good job, and only by being strict with yourself can you manage others.
5. Zhuge Liang in The Commandments during the Three Kingdoms Period
The gentleman's journey is quiet and self-cultivation, frugal and self-cultivation, indifferent to ambition, peaceful and profound.
People with moral cultivation perfect themselves through meditation and introspection, and cultivate their noble character through thrift and saving money. If they are not pure, they can't be clear and firm about their ambitions. If they are unstable and quiet, they can't work hard to realize their lofty ideals for a long time. Sailing against the current, holding on, retreating for a long time will be reversed. It's a pity that the ancient cloud should cherish the second yin on this day.
Don't be idle, it's white and sad.
I don't know how to study hard early, but I regret learning late.
It is easy for young people to learn, but difficult for old people. Every inch of time is an inch of light.
