Science is an honest pursuit. When conducting scientific research, one must adopt an honest and pragmatic attitude, avoiding any falsehood or exaggeration. If you do not know, say you do not know; if you do not understand, do not pretend to understand; instead, keep searching to find where your ignorance lies and where the knowledge is. An honest attitude begins with building a solid foundation. Science is a rigorous discipline with strong continuity and systematicity; if the foundations are not well-laid, one cannot progress. Without a strong foundation, pursuing cutting-edge research becomes difficult. Many problems we encounter in work stem from a lack of a solid foundation. A person's progress in scientific research or other endeavors often depends on the strength of their foundation. —— Hua Luogeng
A person who makes progress in science but regresses in morality is not moving forward, but backward. —— Aristotle
