Some students also talked with me about reading this afternoon. I like reading books, but many students go to watch American dramas and so on. Do I need to insist? Wait, a lot of these questions. Showing off how many books you have read is no different from showing off how much wealth you have. It's annoying. By the way, when do you use it? Insist? This word is bad when it comes to reading. Reading is a pleasure. Someone asked me, which book has the greatest influence on you? Everyone wants a utilitarian result, and the one that has the greatest influence on you must be the most useful. But I think the most useful book for me must be Xinhua Dictionary. There can't be a second one. The rest, all the books, start from the source like a stream. Both the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the trickle of the open source area, and then the water system keeps flowing in, and then continues to grow slowly until the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are so vast. Can you know which streams and rivers flow into the Yellow River and which flow into the Yangtze River? Of course, I can't answer what kind of nutrition has shaped me from so many nutrients I have learned along the way. Someone asked me how many books I had read. I said I couldn't give you a number. At this moment, I can tell you how many books I have read, because it has become me. Most importantly, reading is the greatest pleasure in itself, and it is not my grades that make me happy.
The most striking feature of going to a bookstore in China now is that there are several stacks of books. The first book is about exams, the second is about health, and the third is a so-called best seller. This involves people's concern (content), to pass the customs, to live a long life, to have something to say, and to be afraid of being abandoned by the times. In fact, they are all utilitarian. But there are many good books not for practicality, but for process. When you read this book, you will get a lot of fun.
The book I read on my way here today has brought tears to my eyes again and again. I think these tears are quite good. When there are tears in my eyes, I still know who I am. When you know who you are, an important reason is to know what you are easily moved by. On the way here, I read Thoughts on The National SouthWest Associated University written by Zhang Manling. There are too many places in this book that make people cry. For example, Deng Jiaxian's father is a famous professor in the philosophy department of Tsinghua University. When the Anti-Japanese War broke out and his son was about to go to Kunming to study at the National The National SouthWest Associated University, he said this: Son, study science. Science is useful. ? This sentence? Is it useful? It did reflect the aspirations of intellectuals of that era, but without the realm of philosophy, how could (he) let his son leave the tradition of this family in the face of national disaster? In the end, Deng Jiaxian (became) our two founding fathers!

Nankai University was bombed into ruins on July 29th. 1937. At that time, President Zhang Boling wrote a sentence? I don't care about material losses. Nankai spirit will live on this ruin forever. ? The first day Chiang Kai-shek decided to resist Japan in an all-round way was the second day after bombing Nankai. Chiang Kai-shek once said: China is here and Nankai is here. ? Zhang Boling's son learned to fly from the army, and finally flew that crude plane and was killed in the war with the Japanese army. This is the principal of that era, and this is the son of the principal of that era. I cried at that time. These are useless narratives, which hide this useless reading pleasure. (and) your personality is gradually becoming sound and independent under the influence of this useless thing step by step.
?
Should we encourage more and more people to do seemingly useless things now? Running five days a week is useless, but it gradually becomes a pleasure in the process of running. You talk to yourself and let yourself go. When I am tired, my first thought is running. Indeed, after running, my feet are tired, but my heart and brain are relieved. In a way, this is a kind of dialectics.

The university just stops at perfection, which, in my opinion, is the most important factor and never ends. The qualities required for innovation: unique way of thinking, independent personality and freedom of human mind. In the past, our understanding of freedom was narrow, and the real freedom was in our hearts. In front of the smallest universe and the largest human heart, as long as we can explore and draw some conclusions, it is not vast, but it is the most vast and vast human heart that cannot be mastered. Creation is to break the inherent cage. (www.lz 13.cn) The so-called independent innovation means that there is no innovation without independence. A good university combines the useful with the useless.

Tao can be extraordinary, and name can be extraordinary. It is common sense that some people say the wrong thing to others. My uncle is a middle school math teacher. He used to play games with me every day and give me questions every day. But it is very immoral that he often draws an auxiliary line first and asks me to find a second auxiliary line. I was a child at that time, but I always found a task every day, because any plane geometry problem has one, two or even three or four auxiliary lines to solve. Years later, I suddenly realized that he had deeply changed my way of thinking. Why? Because from then on, I believe that there is more than one answer to everything. When others have answers, I always subconsciously look for the second auxiliary line, and creativity and difference are born in this small detail. You should know that the first auxiliary line is utilitarian and the second auxiliary line is useless, but the second auxiliary line has promoted me and shaped me. As a student, as long as I find the first auxiliary line, I get 10, OK, I don't need to find the second answer at all, but it is such an interesting training that has deeply become me today. I don't believe there is only one answer to a question. I never despair when others have answers. I'm looking for the second answer. So I call it the second auxiliary line, which comes from unprofitable and useless training. Therefore, the creation of China in the future must be that more and more people in China start to be in a daze, start to think, start to be different, start to be different, start to have a second auxiliary line, and start to do useless things.
The progress of mankind is driven by the curiosity of scientists? Everything is connected. Yang Zhenning told me that philosophy is the end of physics learning, and religion is the end of philosophy learning. Everything is a big circle, so his words are quite convincing to me. He is a Nobel Prize winner in this field, becoming a place where everyone will see the connection instead of gathering here. He said this to me because he often does useless things. Thanks for this, that is,
Thank you all. ;
