I would rather be negative than negative. What do you mean?

I would rather be sorry for the whole world than let the whole world be sorry for me.

In fact, this statement is problematic. It was written in the romance of the Three Kingdoms, not Cao Cao's original words. Cao Cao's original words were: "Better be negative than negative." I am the only one who is sorry for others, and I can't let others be sorry for me. Although the meaning is similar, the degree is different. The former refers to people all over the world, and the latter refers to one person. Moreover, Cao Cao was hunted down and killed by mistake, and there was nothing he could do, because taking care of others could not protect himself. He's just talking about it, looking for some comfort and making himself feel better. And he said this with tears, it should be said that there is still some goodwill.
