Chapter 60 What is "elegance"?

"What is 'elegant'? How is 'elegant'?" asked a reader.I have a violent nature, so it's awkward for me to talk about elegance; but if you ask me, I will answer it; if you don't answer well, don't take offense.Elegance, of course, does not mean wearing a famous brand, learning manners, and pretending to be noble. This is just the superficiality of elegance; dressing, being neat and tidy, and adjusting according to the occasion are enough. Elegance is self-cultivation and a good habit. There are things inside and outside. Traffic jam." There are more than ten people at a table, well-dressed, staring at you, a disheveled "busy person", although you are full of "it doesn't matter", but you go to eat, change to accept forgiveness, can you still be elegant?

Power, abuse; or lack of power, or misuse, is not as good as the right to use with caution, or even without elegance. "Schindler's List" seems to have such a plot: a fanatic aims a machine gun at a child in a concentration camp, trying to beat him to death.Others asked: "Why did you do this?" "I want to kill him because I have the right to kill him." Fanatics want to embody power. "You can forgive him, and you also have the right to forgive." The other person is actually a saint, who knows how to straighten the bristles of a wild boar and save a life.

Landbags and local tyrants both love privileges and have the right to exhaust them; however, when did you discover this kind of "powerful" elegance? Honesty is more elegant than dishonesty.Dishonest, seeing people, blinking eyes; writing, hypocritical, for self-interest, you can deceive gods and ghosts, and speak against your conscience; seven broken lids, eight toilets to be built, running around, wanting to cover up, the stench of selfish desires Smoky, certainly not elegant. There is a skill, real materials, of course, more elegant than bluffing wimps. Elegance is seeing all around, listening to all directions, but not moving like a mountain; having the right to use cautiously, having the power to accumulate, and being capable without revealing it; being able to advance and retreat, to enjoy honor and honor, and to know ugliness Zhihu knows how to bow and step down.

The ultimate elegance is to calmly face the success or failure of life and death calmly. When Mount Tai collapses in front of you, you should go to the foot of the mountain to see if anyone needs help.
