Confucius said: "If quality is better than literature, then you will be wild; if literature is better than quality, you will be history; if literature is better than quality, then you will be a gentleman." But some people think that knowing etiquette and being polite are the characteristics of the Chinese nation.

Confucius said: A temperament that is too straightforward will appear rude, and etiquette that is too respectful will appear vain. Proper temperament and etiquette are what a mature person should look like. Wen: Refers to the external performance of etiquette. Quality: refers to the inner benevolence. Only by possessing the inner character of "benevolence" and being able to express it in a manner consistent with "propriety" can one become a "gentleman". The relationship between literature and quality is the relationship between propriety and benevolence. It embodies the ideal personality of the "gentleman" advocated by Confucius; it also reflects the consistent thought of moderation. To be impartial means not to advocate partiality over text, nor to advocate partiality over quality. As a gentleman, you must not only enrich yourself and cultivate your moral character, but also promote yourself and make yourself known. It’s not that a gentleman doesn’t seek fame, but that he doesn’t seek empty fame. "A gentleman is ill and has no reputation." A gentleman seeks to have a name consistent with reality. He neither takes a false reputation nor buries his talents. The "history" in "Literature wins over quality, history" here means "serving as an official in the court". But it means "exaggeration and unreality". My experience after reading "Qia Xia Tong Boy" Mr. Yang Changji quoted Confucius's "Quality wins" The famous saying "Wen Zeye, literature is superior to quality and history" inspired Mao Zedong when he was a boy. He profoundly discussed the principle that learning can not be neglected and pointed out: If a person only has ability and quality but not enough knowledge and accomplishment, he will not be able to restrain himself. On the contrary, if you only pay attention to book learning but lack the cultivation of practical abilities, knowledge will become dead knowledge, learning will become pseudo-knowledge, and people will be rigid and dull, without any knowledge. Practical. Today I saw this passage in "Cha Classmate Youth", which is like drinking nectar. This perspective explains the impact of personal ability and written knowledge accumulation on human development and growth from a dialectical perspective, and I feel deeply inspired. *** Mian!
