"Caigen Tan"
Ninety-five, afraid of hypocrites, afraid of real villains
A gentleman who is deceitful and good is no different from the villain's wanton evil; a gentleman who changes his temper is not as good as the villain's self-judgment.
【Translation】
If a humble gentleman does something deceitful and hypocritical, he is no different from a villain who does all kinds of evil, and a gentleman who knows how to do righteousness is not as good as a villain who can reform his ways.
[Comment]
The villain who does all the evil is dressed as a gentleman, and this kind of person is more deceptive and dangerous than the real villain. There are not a few such people in life, they are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact, their stomachs are full of intrigues and tricks, and they are humble and frugal on the surface, but they are actually dark and vicious in their hearts. In life, we must be wary of such hypocrites.
