Water becomes stagnant after a hundred days, and a person becomes ill after a hundred days of idleness. A brain unused loses its sharpness, and a body untrained loses its vigor. Truly learned people are like stalks of wheat: when they are empty, they stand tall and look proud; but when they reach maturity and are filled with heavy grains, they bow their heads humbly without showing off. Similarly, after all the trials and explorations among the complex knowledge and various things in this world, humans find nothing solid and reliable except for emptiness; thus, they discard vanity and acknowledge their true place. — Montaigne Only by building an indestructible psychological defense can one remain steadfast. Some people are afraid to mention nudity, some dive headlong into psychoanalysis, and some insist on having a 'passionate attitude toward humanity'; some deliberately write about striving to be middle-class, while others aspire to be aristocrats. Some books contain cautious and cunning prejudices, but they possess neither freedom nor the courage to write what they truly feel, and thus cannot be called creative geniuses. — Chekhov Psychological work and ideological-political work are like the two wings of a bird or the two wheels of a cart; they complement each other and are both indispensable. Mindset determines the way out, outlook determines the direction, character determines destiny, and lifestyle determines health. Lead by example to make friends, and exchange hearts to heal the mind. If vanity or anger causes a child to lose their sense of fear or ignore their conscience, appropriate methods should be used to eliminate this psychological state, encouraging them to calm down, think twice, and consider whether the risk is worthwhile. — Locke A good mood can turn your life around. Only by constantly thinking of others can your life gain meaning and you continue to progress. A blessing in disguise. As unpredictable as the wind and clouds in the sky, so are the fortunes and misfortunes in life. When fortunes and misfortunes are intertwined, luck shifts; the tides of life always turn. Dawn follows the darkest night, and spring follows the coldest winter. Those who love others will be loved by others; those who respect others will be respected by others. No matter how steep the mountains, there are travelers; no matter how deep the waters, there are ferrymen. In life, forgiveness can create miracles and recover emotional losses. Forgiveness is like a torch that illuminates the path paved by anxiety, resentment, and the desire for revenge. — Nasov Youth is essentially the youthfulness of the mind. — Konosuke Matsushita
