Bear Humiliation But Not Argue

A sharp tongue can confuse black and white, but it can't change the truth; Eloquence can confuse right and wrong, but cannot distort the truth.

Clever words are not enough to win trust, only sincerity can move.

It's better to speak well than to do well. Only with your mouth closed can you be enlightened by wisdom.

It's better to be eloquent than not to be eloquent. It's better to be reticent than to be eloquent. It's one's lifelong practice to endure humiliation and not to fight.

Speaking is an art, not to say it is a kind of practice. If a person can do nothing to argue, he must have great wisdom and height.

Only those who are close to each other have the need to compete with each other.

However, people who really have a state of mind disdain to show off the benefits of their words. It's better to cultivate themselves than to fight with each other.

If the hierarchy is different, there is no need to decide whether to win or lose.

The fierce tiger won the mad dog is not glorious, the strength disparity competition is meaningless.

Zi Gong, a student of Confucius, argued with a man in green.

Zigong said that there are four seasons in a year, while the man in Green said that there are only three seasons.

They were in a stalemate and asked Confucius to judge. Confucius decided that the man in Green won.

Because the man in green is a grasshopper, who lives in spring and dies in autumn, and can only experience three seasons.

If Zi Gong believed in the four seasons and could see through the truth of the man in Green's saying three seasons, he would not waste his time arguing about this non controversial matter.

Confucius scolded Zigong not because he was wrong, but because he was easily disturbed by others.

People can't see the world with the same pair of eyes or think with the same brain.

In fact, many disputes have nothing to do with right or wrong. Who can be unreasonable from their respective positions?

Life is not at the same height, do not have to pursue the same destination!

It's better to talk less than to talk more. Don't slander, and don't be skillful. It's good to seek truth from facts.

Stupid people like to say everything, but can't grasp the point, the result is nonsense.

A wise man is silent, but he always says the right thing.

The true profound knowledge is not preserved in the written language.

Speech is not in many, but in fine, the more able to speak, the more know how to cherish words.

Heaven and earth, four seasons and all things are the greatest masterpieces of nature.

They are deep and distant, but they refuse to say a word.

What you don't say is always more important than what you say. What you contain is always more profound than what you show.

Sophistication requires careful pondering, and artistic conception of life requires careful experience.

Being frank is by no means an advantage. You need to think twice before you act.

The more you talk, the more pleasant it is, the easier it is to distort and the less honest it is.

Life, learn to bear humiliation in order to load, the real master know how to win without fighting.

It is a kind of self-restraint to endure humiliation without arguing, and it is a kind of realm to be reticent without arguing.
