Examples of honest celebrities

Honesty is not only a personal virtue and quality, but also a social moral principle and norm. The following are some examples of celebrity integrity that I have collected. Welcome to read and share for your reference. I hope it helps you.

A businessman in Jiyang sank while crossing the river. He grabbed a hemp pole and shouted for help. A fisherman heard the sound. The businessman quickly shouted: "I am the richest man in Jiyang. If you can save me, I will give you 100 two gold. " . After being rescued ashore, the businessman turned his face and refused to admit it. He only gave the fisherman 10 two gold. The fisherman accused him of breaking his word and going back on his word. The rich man said, "You are a fisherman. I can't make much money in my life. Is it not enough to suddenly get twelve taels of gold? " My husband must be very unhappy. Unexpectedly, the rich man capsized in the same place again. Someone tried to save him, and the person he cheated said, "He is a man of his word!" " "So the merchant drowned. It is accidental that the businessman capsized twice and met the same husband, but it is expected that the businessman will not be rewarded. Because if a person does not keep his word, he will lose the trust of others. So, once he is in trouble, no one wants to rescue him. Those who break their promises to others, once in trouble, have to sit still.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there was a man named Ji Bu. He kept his word and had a very high reputation. Many people have established a strong friendship with him. At that time, there was even a proverb: "It is better to get a hundred pounds of gold than to keep a promise." (This is the origin of the idiom "A promise is as good as a gold") Later, he offended Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu, and was offered a reward for his capture. As a result, his old friends not only were not confused by the heavy money, but also risked the extinction of Jiuzu to protect him from disaster. A person who is honest and trustworthy will naturally get a lot of help and gain everyone's respect and friendship. On the other hand, if you covet temporary comfort or petty advantages and lose trust in your friends, you will get "benefits" on the surface. But for this benefit, he ruined his reputation, which is much more important than material things. Therefore, breaking a promise to a friend is tantamount to losing a watermelon and picking up sesame seeds, which is not worth the loss.

Yan Shu, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, is famous for his incorruptibility. At the age of fourteen, he was recommended to the emperor and became a child prodigy. The emperor summoned him and asked him to take the exam at the same time with more than 1000 Jinshi. As a result, Yan Shu found that she had just practiced the exam ten days ago, so she truthfully reported to Zhenzong and asked to change other topics. Song Zhenzong appreciated Yan Shu's honesty very much and named him "fellow scholar". When Yan Shu takes office, the world is at peace. Therefore, Beijing officials, large and small, often go to the suburbs or hold various banquets in restaurants and teahouses in the city. Yan Shu was poor and had no money to go out to eat, drink and have fun, so she had to read and write articles with her brothers at home. One day, Zhenzong promoted Yan Shu as the official of the East Palace who assisted the prince in his studies. Ministers were surprised and didn't understand why Zhenzong made such a decision. Zhenzong said, "Recently, the ministers often play and have banquets. Only Yan Shu studies behind closed doors, so she is cautious in self-esteem and is the best candidate for the East Palace official. " Yan Shu thanked him and said, "I am actually a person who likes to play and eat, but my family is poor." If I had money, I would have taken part in the banquet tour. " These two things made Yan Shu establish prestige in front of ministers, and Song Zhenzong trusted him more.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Qin Shangyang presided over the political reform with the support of Qin Xiaogong. At that time, when wars were frequent and people were worried, in order to establish prestige and promote reform, Shang Yang ordered a 30-foot-long wood to be erected outside the south gate of the capital, and made a promise in public: whoever can move this wood to the north gate will be rewarded with twelve taels of silver. None of the onlookers believe that such an easy thing can get such a high reward, so no one is willing to try. So Shang Yang raised the reward to 50 gold. Under the four rewards, there must be brave people. Finally someone stepped forward and carried the wood to the north gate. Shang Yang immediately rewarded him with fifty gold. Shang Yang's move established prestige in the hearts of the people, and Shang Yang's next reform was quickly popularized in Qin State. The new law made the State of Qin stronger and eventually unified China.

It was also in the place where Shang Yang "established a tree as a letter" that a ridiculous farce of "playing a vassal in a bonfire" was staged 400 years ago.

There is a favorite princess in Zhou Youwang, whose name is Bos. In order to win her smile, Zhou Youwang ordered more than 20 beacon towers near the capital to light bonfires-bonfires are a signal of border warning, which can only be lit when foreign enemies invade and need to call the princes for help. As a result, as soon as the princes saw the bonfire, they led the soldiers to arrive in a hurry, realized that it was a trick set by the king to smile at his wife, and then left angrily. I finally smiled happily when I saw the usually prestigious princes at a loss. Five years later, another large-scale attack on Zhou, the bonfire of Youwang was rekindled, but the ministers were late-no one wanted to be fooled again. As a result, you Wang was forced to commit suicide and was praised and captured.

A "stand up and win the trust" promises 1000 yuan; An emperor didn't believe it and played the game of "wolf coming". As a result, the former succeeded in political reform and the country was strong; The latter, who brought shame on himself, died. It can be seen that "belief" plays a very important role in the rise and fall of a country.

Article 5: Honest celebrity case My mother once took Lenin to my aunt's house as a guest. Little Lenin broke a vase in his aunt's house. So the aunt asked the children, "Who broke the vase?" Lenin, afraid of being criticized by menstruation, followed the other children and said, "Not me!" But my mother guessed that the vase was broken by naughty little Lenin, because the child was naughty and similar things often happened at home. But Lenin always took the initiative to admit his mistakes and never lied. She pretended to believe what her son said and never mentioned it. But to tell my son about virtue story, who is honest and trustworthy, waiting for him to admit it voluntarily. One day, Lenin burst into tears when his mother was telling a story, and told her painfully, "I lied to menstruation. I said I didn't break the vase, but I did. " Hearing that the child was ashamed, the mother patiently comforted him and told him that she would forgive him as long as she wrote to her aunt to apologize. So Lenin got up at once and, with the help of his mother, wrote to his aunt to apologize. From then on, Lenin never lied again. When he grew up, he won the support of the people through the valuable quality of honesty.

Doesn't this mean that the sun is far away from us in the morning and close to us at noon? " The other argued, "No! In the morning, the sun is big and happy, just as big as the canopy on the roof; But by noon, the sun will be smaller, and it will be as big as a dish at most. It is common sense that the near is big and the far is small. " When two children were arguing fiercely, they looked up and saw two adults standing in front of them and asked the elder, "Who are you?" The old man said, "My name is Lu." A child said happily, "Oh, it's Confucius. I hear you are very knowledgeable. Please comment and see who is right. " Confucius honestly admitted: "I can't answer this question. I'll ask someone who has studied angles and answer you later. " The children laughed: "People say Confucius is a saint, and they don't answer questions!" " Confucius looked at the smiling child and said to Lutz, a student around him, "You know what you know in your study, but you don't know what you don't know. Only with this honest attitude can we learn real knowledge. "

The fable "The Shepherd Boy and the Wolf" must have been heard by everyone. Why did the shepherd boy shout when the wolf really came, and no one came to help him, so that all the sheep were eaten by the wolf? It is precisely because he cheated people many times that people lost trust in him, so they didn't believe him. No one will believe a person who has been lying, even if he tells the truth. This is what happens when you keep lying.

Honest celebrity case article 13 Ceng Zi was deeply taught by Confucius. He is not only knowledgeable, but also very honest. He never cheats others, even for his own children.

One day, Ceng Zi's wife was going to the market, and the child cried and asked to go with his mother. So his mother lied to him and said, "Good boy, wait for your mother at home and kill the pig for you when she comes back from the market." The child believed it and ran home happily, shouting, "There is meat to eat, there is meat to eat."

The child stayed at home all day, and when his mother came back, friends from the village came to visit him, but he refused. He leaned against the wall, basking in the sun and imagining the taste of pork, not to mention how happy he was.

In the evening, the child saw his mother come back from a distance. He ran forward to meet him in three steps and shouted, "mom, mom, kill the pig, I'm dying of greed." Ceng Zi's wife said, "A pig can support our family's food for two or three months. How can you kill pigs casually? " The child cried with a wow.

Ceng Zi heard it. When he knew the truth, he said nothing and turned back to the house. After a while, he came out with a kitchen knife. Ceng Zi's wife was frightened, because Ceng Zi was always strict with the children, thinking that he was going to teach them a lesson, and she quickly put her arms around them. But Ceng Zi went straight to the pigsty.

The wife asked inexplicably, "What are you doing in the pigsty with a kitchen knife?" Ceng Zi replied without thinking: "Kill the pig". The wife listened to a sloped smile: "But what pig should I kill in the New Year?" Ceng Zi said seriously, "Didn't you promise your child to kill pigs for him? Since you promised, you should do it. "

The wife said, "I'm just lying to the children." Why should I talk to them seriously? " Ceng Zi said: "It is more important for children to keep their promises. Otherwise, isn't it obvious that children should learn to lie from their parents? Adults don't keep their words. What qualifications are there to educate children in the future? " The wife bowed her head in shame after hearing this. The couple really killed the pigs for their children and gave a banquet to entertain the villagers, asking them to educate their children to set an example.

Although Ceng Zi was laughed at by some people, he educated honest and trustworthy children. The story of Ceng Zi's killing pigs has spread to this day, and his character has been admired by later generations. From this story, we understand that as parents, we should learn to lead by example, be honest and trustworthy, and as children, we should cultivate an honest character from an early age.

Walter Scott, a famous British novelist, is an honest and trustworthy person. Although he is poor, people respect him very much.

Scott is honest. One of his friends saw that his life was very difficult and helped him set up a publishing and printing company. But he was not good at business and soon went bankrupt. This left the poor writer with a debt burden of 60 thousand dollars.

Scott's friends discussed raising enough money to help him pay his debts. Scott refused. He said, "No, I can pay off my debts with my own hands. I can lose anything, but the only thing I can't lose is credit. "

In order to pay his debts, he worked as hard as an old ox pulling a scooter. His friends all admire his courage and say that he is a real man, an upright and noble man.

At that time, many newspapers reported the news of his closure, and some articles were full of sympathy and regret. He threw all these articles into the stove and said to himself, "Walter Scott doesn't need pity and sympathy. He has precious credit and the courage to overcome life. "

After that, he worked harder and learned a lot of jobs that he couldn't do before. I often go to several units a day and change jobs, which makes people tired, dark and thin.

Once, after reading a novel written by Scott, one of his creditors approached him and said, "Mr. Scott, I know you are trustworthy, but you are a very talented writer." You should spend more time writing, so I decided to forgive your debt. Don't pay back the money you owe me. "

Scott said, "Thank you very much, but I can't accept your help. I can't be a person without credit. "

After this incident, he wrote in his diary: "I have never slept like this." My creditor told me that he thought I was an honest and reliable person. He said he could forgive my debt, but I can't accept it. Although the road ahead is hard and dark, it makes me feel glorious. I may die hard to save my reputation, but I died honorably. "

Scott fell ill for a time because of hard work. In his illness, he often said to himself, "I owe others debts, and I haven't paid them off yet." I have to get better. When I earn money and pay off my debts, I will die gloriously and peacefully. "

This belief enabled Scott to recover from his illness quickly. Two years later, he paid off his debts by his own labor.

The emperor found that Wang's article was novel, unique and fluent, and no one could match it, so he decided to make Wang the number one scholar.

The emperor summoned the top three scholars to the main hall of the palace. The king said to him, "Your Majesty, I don't deserve to be a champion. Please award the champion to others. " Everyone in the golden palace talked about it, and the emperor was puzzled. Wang said, "Your Majesty, I have been studying hard for ten years. My dream is to win the first prize. But I just did the exam not long ago, so I was lucky to be selected as the top scholar. If I silently become the number one scholar, I am a dishonest person. Growing up, I never lied. I don't want to ruin my moral integrity in order to be the number one scholar. " Upon hearing this, Song Renzong especially appreciated Wang's honesty and thought that only such people could become the pillars of the country, so he did not agree to Wang's request and encouraged Wang. As a result, Wang became the 38th scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty.

At the beginning of the 20th century, immigrants to America were very thrifty, trying to save every penny. Francisco Roddy set up a small bank to absorb immigrant deposits. 19 15 One day on Christmas Eve, the cashier of this bank went out for lunch, and Roddy was the only one here. Suddenly, three masked gangsters rushed in, put Roddy in the toilet and took away $22,000 from the bank. Depositors flocked to withdraw money after hearing the news. Although Roddy tried his best to repay, he failed, and was finally forced to liquidate and declare bankruptcy. 250 depositors * * * lost 18000 USD. Since then, Roddy's family has been penniless. They lost their house, savings, savings and everything, and even a better red carpet at home was taken away as a debt. A banker said to Roddy, "The bank was robbed. It was a natural disaster. Now that you have declared bankruptcy, you have no responsibility and you don't have to pay the deposit. " Roddy said, "Maybe legally. However, I personally have to accept this debt, which is a credit debt. I will definitely pay it back later! "

Roddy worked hard to pay his debts. He kills pigs during the day and repairs shoes at night. He also mobilized older children to sell newspapers and help people move goods. The family scrimped and saved a little money and had certain repayment conditions. Roddy heard that a depositor was seriously ill and had a hard life, so he paid off the 177 yuan he had deposited more than ten years ago. In the future, the Roddy family will always give some money to the most difficult depositors first. Roddy heard that a widow who was seriously ill could not support her children. Roddy paid her 65,438+000 yuan first and 65,438+00 yuan every month to pay her rent. Roddy also heard that a depositor owed taxes and was in danger of going to jail. Twenty years ago, he deposited a sum of money in Roddy Bank. Roddy quickly found him and repaid his savings, which saved him from imprisonment.

However, because it takes too long for many depositors to remember, Roddy advertised for depositors in insurance companies, churches, developers and even local newspapers. From a news report, he found three depositors in California. They haven't found them for a long time, so he sent them their deposits separately. They were moved, and two of them paid back their savings. Ask him to forward it to other poor people or their children. With the help of the priest, Roddy found a pair of elderly depositors 90 miles away. Roddy came to their house through the thick snow. For decades, their deposit certificates have been lost, but I remember the address of Roddy Savings Bank, the pawnshop and blacksmith shop on the corner. Roddy thought what they said was right, so he cashed the deposit for them according to the amount they provided. On Christmas Eve after1946,31year, the bank was robbed, and Roddy paid off the deposits of 250 depositors 18000 yuan.

Roddy children scattered around the world because of World War II are reunited again. At this time, Roddy sent a New Year card to all past depositors or their children, with a few words attached: "I, Francisco Roddy, used to run a savings bank. After 19 15 was robbed, the bank was forced to close down, but I promised you at that time that I would return the deposit in the future. After years of struggle, we have fulfilled our promise, and now we have paid off all the deposits and interest, which is really gratifying. Merry Christmas to everyone! " When the last card was sent, Roddy said, "I am very happy, because I live up to my promise!" " "Credit is gold, and keeping promises is not only the law that the market economy should and must abide by, but also the most precious wealth in life.
