Mu Xin's life is accompanied by more and more cultural defects. He refused to give up, but he never gave up. This is the hidden background of this book: between, outside and after numerous mistakes, Mu Xin always tries his best to place himself in the world literature landscape. If he hadn't run away, this tenacious and protracted struggle would have been almost futile.
His love for literature has reached the point of sin, and he is as isolated as his sin. This book is full of his unswerving first and last names, and his literary work Sancta familia doesn't know how to permanently influence this man.
He loved the pre-Qin classics only because of hundred schools of thought's literary talent; He thinks all hypocrites are still alive today, Kong Qiu; He wants to say to Nietzsche who loves him: exhaust philosophy; He admired Byron, Shelley and Heine, but said they were not very good at writing poems. He said Tolstoy's "brain doesn't work", but when it comes to Tuoweng's tomb, there are no crosses or tombstones. Suddenly, his voice became weak, and he trembled and said, "Great!" " When talking about Sartre's funeral, Mu Xin quoted Nietzsche with a straight face: Only performers can arouse the great excitement of the public.
This is a strange combination: almost all the participants are painters, and there is no sign that anyone has heard of the history of literature or devoted himself to literature. We don't know all the writers and works of various countries mentioned in the class-Mu Xin is not interested in them at all. When he met someone for the first time, he never asked about his education and identity. It is strange that in the face of these insignificant faces, he just talks about it with interest, as if he were talking about something delicious. I guess he is not naive enough to think that all living beings have the same degree, but he seems to believe that everyone really loves literature as he does.
Mu Xin's speech has no accent-it's not like a speech, it's like a chat, but his chat is clear and fair, just like a speech-he speaks slowly, never speaks loudly, talks about important meanings, and uses a slightly aggravated tone for every word, such as reading a written sentence. In the past six months, I instinctively heard his hoarse and old voice between the pages. More than ten times, I remember, he suddenly stopped a sentence, fixed the old man's expression and stared at us for several seconds.
Excerpts from Mr. Mu Xin's one-liners hit the nail on the head.
You are an artist, and you are a phoenix on the earth. Wherever you go, all the birds on the earth will face the phoenix-you phoenix are silent among all the birds.
My grandmother opened a carpet factory, and one day a phoenix suddenly flew in, surrounded by birds. The apprentice saw it and came back to tell the boss that there was nothing when the boss got there.
Phoenix is silent in all things.
"He who knows others is wise, and he who knows himself is wise. The winner is strong, and the soldiers are strong in Ma Zhuang. The contented are rich, and the forced are ambitious. Those who have not lost their position for a long time will live if they die. "
You should have endurance. The stamina is the back road.
How can I put it? It is exactly what Mencius said: "I am good at nurturing my noble spirit." This spirit should be used in art, not in life and interpersonal relationships-don't care about flies, fleas and cockroaches, and don't be indignant. Talk about flies, fleas and cockroaches all day. If you talk too much, you will become a fly like Kafka's Metamorphosis.
This is what I call "the initial success of my work". In fact, I want to get in touch with and meet people. After washing dishes for fifty years, I don't know anything about people. It's no use just washing dishes-this is called knowing people's faces but not knowing their hearts.
It is indispensable to know people and friends. "
I often compare art to wine, which is picked from grapes and fermented ... This process is very bleak and dark. Once it is brewed, it will be bright and refreshing.
Modern art has to tell you all about wine-making when you are drinking, and drag you to the wine cellar to watch and drink-why?
Knowledge and learning make people understand and calm. Some people need some knowledge to show their teeth,
It is difficult to ride a tiger day and night, and the tiger also complains. Talking about tigers, tigers are also surprised.
Nietzsche thought of "samsara"-everything will happen again, develop and be destroyed in the same way, even endlessly-Nietzsche began to cry.
What does law have to do with fate? Is law above fate or fate above law? Since things are governed by fate, how can things have their own strict laws? And how does fate control these strict laws of things?
This thinking problem has hardly been thought about.
Laozi thought about it, but there was still no result-he said, "Skynet is long and slow, but it doesn't leak." This is the law. He added: "Heaven and earth are heartless, and everything is regarded as a dog." This is destiny. His whole book "Tao Te Ching" is so binary that it is both fate and law, explaining fate for a while and law for a while.
In fact, talking about the law is optimistic. It is pessimistic to talk about fate.
Laozi's moral classics emphasize the law, and he has a way to deal with everything. His method is to control the law by law, which is a must-read book for conspirators. But I'm a smart man. He always knew that the irony of fate was behind the law.
China's Book of Changes is also very sad. It thinks that fate has laws, so it simply studies fate and thinks that if we find the laws of fate, we can avoid evil and luck.
Cultivate yourself, harvest yourself, cultivate yourself, and raise troops for thousands of days.
Don't forget that people have bodies. Good health and mental balance.
Health is a kind of numbness.
People's mood will gradually improve, because health is balancing pain. People fall into a terminal illness, which is the disappearance of this balance. People are happiest when they are recovering (illness can make people sensitive, and sensitivity is all used for illness). People who have recovered from a serious illness are particularly bright in eyes and mood.
In a word, it is dishonest to be too pessimistic and too optimistic about life and human beings. Seeing the absurdity of the world clearly is the basic standard of the wise. See clearly, not feel sick, but smile.
The wise men in ancient China were pessimistic and happy.
The gate of heaven is a narrow door, and people always think that only singles can squeeze in. Now I understand that this door can't be squeezed in by one person, but two people are squeezed in. One person can't get in, but two people squeeze in, which is the gate of heaven-conclusion: others are hell, others are heaven. It's like a question and a digression, trying to make you rational. Know what? People living in the world should have a standard to settle down. You can live without this scale, but you should know this scale.
Generally speaking, you can find problems in reality. Look at all the men and women around you. Do they have standards? The so-called scale is the whole standard.
Schopenhauer's pessimism and Nietzsche's superman philosophy are noble appreciation and delicious tonics, but existentialism is a practical liberation.
Flesh and blood are smarter than intelligence. The thoughts in our minds may be wrong, but the feelings, beliefs and words in our blood are always correct.
This is a poetic and literary statement. I agree with Lawrence, but I want to add one thing:
Blood and flesh are smarter than intelligence, but without brain, life will be ruined by blood and flesh, which is also "forever true"-I am very willing to listen to blood and flesh instead of intelligence, and life is of course happy and crazy, but I dare not. I don't indulge, I still live by my thoughts. When I see Lawrence, I will say to him, "You dare not."
Books in the world can be divided into two categories, one is suitable for deep reading and the other is suitable for shallow reading. If a book that should be read lightly is read deeply, it has been trapped and controlled. Nietzsche's books should be read deeply. You should study lightly, be proud, be conceited, study deeply and study yourself.
If the Tao Te Ching is easy to read, it will be strategic, cunning and profound, and it will be refined into ideological family kung fu. If you read Li Sao deeply, you will love your country and your country, but if you read it lightly, you will be beautiful and good. Everything is wrong and easy to read.
In the notes of this lesson: "The Tao Te Ching should be read deeply. Li Sao should be easy to read. If you read the Tao Te Ching lightly, you will have strategy and cunning. If you read it deeply, you will be refined into ideological inner-family kung fu. " Very meaningful. What is a person suitable for? It's his choice. If you make the right choice, you can do many things. If you make the wrong choice, it's over.
Standing at the age of 30 means making the right choice. Wrong choice, it is "standing at thirty"
The so-called education means self-education. All external education serves for self-education. Imagine if self-education fails, what is the use of external education?
Mortals have no self-education. The so-called superman refers to surpassing oneself and constantly surpassing oneself.
You wake up feeling less drunk and ask the breeze and waves, stars and birds, all those who escape, moan, cycle, sing and talk-what time is it? They will say that when you are intoxicated, you are intoxicated with poetry, beautiful scenery and wine.
The poems in A Dream of Red Mansions are like aquatic plants. It's not good to take the water out. Put it in the water, it looks good.
However, his "flame" is cool and warm, but it is sharp and sharp. It is particularly noteworthy that his words are like icebergs, and the corner of the sun shines with dazzling light, and the unspoken meaning is unfathomable.
At any time, people can't think independently. Learn more, think more, think more.
Myth is what adults say to children, and then tell them. Only by listening and thinking more can people return to nature.
Ha ha ha, very vulgar and sincere.
Labor is bitter, sex is static, and only the victory of war is large-scale and open, so there are voices, voices and songs, songs and poems.
This is called "purification", and China people say "entry". "Tong" is epistemology and "Da" is methodology. "Communication" is observation, "Reaching" is self-sufficiency.
Taoism takes softness as its strength, defense as its attack, and humiliation as its self-denial to defeat the enemy. Buddhists are content with goodness, while Taoists call it empty acceptance, which affects the strategies and plans of strategists and politicians.
This humiliation effort is to make people feel ashamed and regretful, and it is a persuasion strategy-both preferential treatment for prisoners and pardon for war criminals are based on this principle. Both the compassion of Buddhism and the empty acceptance of Taoism (such as babies and water) stem from this kind of resistance without resistance, and shame prevails. Scaring you, not completely, making you ashamed and repenting is the real conquest.
Where does confidence come from? Faith is loyalty. Firm and relaxed. It is too difficult to be loyal to his ambition. Many people firmly believe that if they stand up and destroy, it is better not to stand up. Art, love, politics and business should all be loyal. Seek Tao, be firm and loyal, and go on, even if you cross the ocean.
The so-called second-rate, that is, the original ambition of first-class people, weather, geography, and people are incompatible, and become second-rate. If you are willing to be second-rate or third-rate, you are already at the bottom. The so-called education means self-education. All external education serves for self-education. Imagine if self-education fails, what is the use of external education?
Mortals have no self-education. The so-called superman refers to surpassing oneself and constantly surpassing oneself. Jesus' wish, the chapter is very clear. When it was time to escape, when it was time to speak, when it was time to be silent, when it was time to sacrifice, he went to the cross. At last he said, "It's done."
From the perspective of artistic value, Jesus is "accomplished", and from the perspective of life value, Jesus' love for the world is unilateral. The world loves him, but the world doesn't deserve him. For two thousand years, the love of all countries in the world has been placed on one side of the scale, and on the other side of the scale, it is the farewell call of Jesus on the cross. Love is a kind of self-education.
Please don't ignore the word "original". Some people here are in love, others are being loved, which is very happy and troublesome. The last sentence: "Love is a kind of self-education." -On faith, Jesus is complete; Jesus' love for mankind is unrequited love.
An artist is a spendthrift. Religion is too boring, science is too boring, and artists are also profligate. He has his own purpose and method. For the purpose of religious design, with the help of philosophical framework. However, this is not the return of the prodigal son
But you must have a home first, and if you are tired of life, the waves will come out with the wealth of philosophy and religion. You should not return to the prodigal son prematurely, but dabble in religion and philosophy.
What is philosophy? Thinking about the universe, thinking about people's position in the universe and thinking about the meaning of life is not utilitarian. Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness and faithfulness define interpersonal relationships. China's ethics studies interpersonal relationships, which is purely utilitarian.
So don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will have tomorrow's troubles, and one day's difficulties will be enough.
Why care about religious scholars, philosophers and artists? In the final analysis, it is a heart. It's all Icarus If they fly high, they will definitely fall.
With an open mind, without prejudice and requirements, we can observe the endless universe with endless wisdom.
If the water is good, it will benefit everything. Keep peace of mind.
