Read thousands of books and take Wan Li Road.
"Reading is like a million volumes, and writing is like a god." This is a famous sentence of Du Fu. Zheng Banqiao said: "Reading thousands of books is at a loss." What is this?
These two poems seem to have diametrically opposite meanings, but they are actually two sides of the same question. Du Fu's words are undoubtedly right. Practice makes perfect, and diligence makes up for it. This is the experience of domestic and foreign scholars. However, if you read too much and don't chew, and lack the ability to control knowledge, you will naturally feel that you have no owner in your chest. Therefore, Lao Tzu said, "If you get too little, you will be confused."
From ancient times to the present, there are countless examples of starting a business by studying hard. However, as Bodlak, a famous scholar, said, "Books make some people knowledgeable, but they also make some people crazy when they eat them but don't digest them." In history, many people are "crazy" because they study hard.
It is said that there was a scholar who broke thousands of books in ancient times. It should be said that he was knowledgeable and "wrote like a god". It's a pity that he can only live to photograph the things in the book. Once, a mother-in-law died and asked him to write a couplet. He naturally accepted it, so he copied it according to the elegiac couplet written by his mother-in-law in the book. Someone reminded him that he was wrong, and he said, "I wrote it according to the book. How can it be wrong? " The wrong person died in his family. If a person dies, isn't it right? "Let this man cry and laugh. This is ridiculous!
In the Qing Dynasty, Qian Yong said in Talking in the Garden: "Reading thousands of books and taking Wan Li Road should not be neglected. Every time I see an old scholar standing in a sheet piling pile for decades, I don't know that there are people everywhere as soon as I go out to study. The old curtain in Shaoxing, full of white hair, traveled all over 18 provinces and asked about the feelings of mountains and rivers, the distance of true feelings, the thickness of customs, and the cultivation of products, which are dreamlike, are also everywhere.
