In the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Bei Guan Yu Zhang Fei saw it as usual, Liu Bei first showed his heart, exhausted the wild sand to see the real gold, and was willing to worship with the two as brothers, which was an honor in this life.
Then Guan Yu said:
Although Guan Mou is a warrior, he also knows the word loyalty and righteousness, which is the so-called bird of choosing wood, and getting a good wood; choosing the subject of the Lord, having to meet the Ming Lord, Guan Mou's wish in life is enough.
From now on, Guan's life is Brother Liu's order, and Guan's body is Brother Liu's body, but by driving, there is no two hearts. A vow and brother, suffering and sharing, lifelong companionship, life and death.
After some words, Liu Bei was moved by the flow of sobs, and Zhang Fei on the side wanted to interject, but there was no ink in his heart, and he could only follow Guan Yu with one strength:
It's the same, it's the same!
It's funny.
This is probably the difference between reading and not reading.

Huang Tingjian, a writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, said: If the scholar does not read for three days, then the righteousness will not be handed over to his chest, and he will feel that his speech is tasteless and his face is abominable.
In life, we often encounter such a situation as Zhang Fei, and we want to express a lot, but due to the lack of knowledge, we can't express it in two sentences over and over again.
Let's take a look at Su Shifa's "Circle of Friends" "Ji Chengtian Temple Night Tour":
On the night of October 12, the sixth year of Yuanfeng,
Undressed and sleepy, the moon enters the house,
Get up and running.
Those who think nothing and enjoy themselves,
So he went to Chengtian Temple to look for Zhang Huaimin.
Huaimin also did not sleep,
Phase and step in the atrium.
The court is like a watery sky,
Algae in the water are crossed, and the shadow of the bamboo cypress is also covered.
What night without the moon? Where is there no bamboo cedar?
But few idle people are like my two ears.
Three words and two words, eloquent narration, meaning all contained in it, as if there were babbling water flowing through the pebbles.
Therefore, this article has been passed down through the ages and has become a pearl in the history of literature, and we sometimes can't even edit a satisfactory circle of friends, which is the gap between reading more and less.

Books can't help you solve all your problems, but they can give you a better perspective and see the wider world.
It is often said:
"What do girls do when they read so many books?" Don't you want to get married after graduation? Find a man to marry, at home to meet husbands and children, wash and cook all day, face oil, rice, salt and tea, what is the use of knowledge in books? What is the diagram? ”
I think it can be answered by Yang Chen's words:
Reading is to meet a better self.
Liking to read is equivalent to replacing the lonely and lonely light of life with a moment of great enjoyment.
Reading is not for a diploma, nor for getting rich overnight, but to become a person with temperature, interest and thinking.

Yi Zhongtian once said that reading is to meet a group of interesting souls, and then cultivate a clean heart and be the most authentic person.
Academicians Wang Guangqian, Hu Chunhong and Ni Jinren of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are undergraduate students of Wuhan University, all of whom studied at Tsinghua University after graduation and lived in the same dormitory.
Although the personalities are different, they get along well with each other and have a harmonious relationship.
Whether it's professional communication or life chat, they all talk about it; playing football together, playing Go together...
The three of them also liked to "compile chapters and return novels" to the students in the class in the dormitory, which was initiated by Ni Jinren at the beginning, and then everyone made up and edited each other, and after the compilation was finished, they told the classmates and talked with relish.
In 2009, 2013 and 2015, the three were elected academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and "one house and three academicians" became the hot news on major websites at that time.
People who love to read, some get together because of disciplines, some get together because of hobbies, and then, the power and light emitted by each other affect each other, forming a dazzling aura.
There is an old Saying in China: Things are clustered by kinds, and people are divided by groups; those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.
Reading books allows you to meet better people, and together you will become more excellent and form a virtuous circle.

Reading is not only to make a living, but also to be more ambitious.
Buychao said in the "Pillow Book":
Reading is everywhere, reading in the mountains, getting its ethereality;
Read at sea, get its vastness;
In the shade of the flowers can read, get its sweet fragrance;
You can read books on the night of the moon, and you can get its tranquility.
Mr. Yang Dai's father once asked Yang Dai: "Ah Ji, you will not let you read books for three days, how are you?"
She said: "It's not good. ”
And he asked, "What about not reading for a week?"
Yang Dai replied, "I have lived in vain for a week." ”
The father laughed and said, "Me too." ”
Ma Weidu once said: People have a threefold pursuit in life, the first is to seek profit, the second is to become famous, and the third is to be quiet.
When you truly fall in love with reading and enjoy being alone alone, you reach the highest state of life.
At this time, when you hear "azure and other smoke and rain, and I am waiting for you", you will not only feel: Wow, Chinese style, so beautiful.
After reading the history, you know that the ancient kiln technology is backward, unable to control the humidity, and the beautiful color of azure blue needs to wait until the rare drizzle weather to burn out.
At this time, you can fully understand the wonderful meaning of this lyric.
Someone once asked a question on Zhihu:
I read a lot of books, but then most of them were forgotten by me, so what is the meaning of reading?
The answer from the highest vote was this:
When I was a kid, I ate a lot of food, most of which is gone and forgotten by me. But what is certain is that some of them have grown into my bones and flesh.
Reading changes to your mind, too.
Books are like mountains, and reading is like water;
The mountain is limited, and the water flow is endless.
Reading as the norm of life is the best thing in life, and it is also a habit that needs to be adhered to for a lifetime.
In a person's temperament, there are books that have been read, roads that have been traveled, and people who have loved.
Temperament is the product of the long-term precipitation of years, and books are the best gifts that a long time has given us.
The mountain light whisks the sills around the corridor, and the dancing goose returns to the spring breeze.
Good birds branches are also friends, falling flowers and water surfaces are articles.
Mo Shaoguang is old, and only reading is good in life.
What is the joy of reading? The grass in front of the green window is not removed.
