Engels made good friends and became a teacher of the proletarian revolution

When Engels, the teacher of the proletarian revolution, was young, his father asked him to study business, but he was very disgusted with his merchant family and the mediocre friends around him. Determined not to "follow in his father's footsteps", he resolutely renounced all bourgeois social interaction and often went to the workers' houses to live with the workers and make friends there. Especially after he got to know Marx, this cautious attitude of making friends played an extremely important role in promoting the healthy growth of the young Engels, until he became the world-famous teacher of the proletarian revolution.

This is exactly as the Augmentation of the Sages says: "There are few evils, and they will suffer from them for a long time; Qu Zhi is old, and he can rely on each other in a hurry. ”

This sentence tells us that with those who have bad character, they will inevitably be affected and affected by it for a long time; Get along with people who are mature and talented, and can rely on him even in a very urgent situation. Therefore, making friends must be cautious. Getting along with people with high moral character will naturally make themselves heard and invisibly improve their self-cultivation; And to get along with people with inferior character, not only can not progress, but also may become the same people as them.
