Beauty Spanning 100 Years (Excerpt)
Liang Heng
Marie Curie's reputation has been passed down to the world since the moment she discovered radium, and it has been 100 years since then, and it is an honor that she has paid for with all her youth, faith and life. During her lifetime, she received 10 prizes, 16 medals, 107 honorary titles, and in particular, two Nobel Prizes.9 She could have enjoyed any prize or any honor, but she regarded fame and fortune as dung, and she gave the prize money to scientific research and France at war, and gave the medals to her six-year-old daughter as toys. She was not burdened by the beauty given by God, and how could she be willing to bear the reputation given by the world? Who should judge the short and long, and she changed her name to meticulous study, as always, she buried herself in work until she died at the age of 67, leaving her beloved laboratory. Until 40 years after her death, there were still rays being released from the notebook she used. Albert Einstein said, "Of all the world's famous figures, Marie Curie is the only one who has not been spoiled by fame." "She is realistic, out-of-this-world, knows her goals, and knows her worth even more. It is very difficult for ordinary people to achieve these two self-knowledges, eliminate interference and be consistent for life, but Marie Curie did it. She made us understand that people have multiple values and need to be developed in multiple layers. Some people stop at the form to sell their appearance, some people stop at the courage and show their strength, some people stop at the heart and have their skills, and some people reach the reason and use their wisdom. Zhuge Liang fought all his life, swallowing Cao Wu with anger, but he did not wear a single armor or a blade; Mao Zedong commanded the army and the people to fight a new China in the flames of war, but he never received a military rank and did not carry a single shot. The sound of the voice, the avenue is invisible, and the wise people are not sluggish in the form, not in the force, not in the technique. They live lightly, think quietly, persistently forge ahead, go straight to the high ground of wisdom, freely control the law, and always maintain a rational beauty.
Marie Curie was such a great man who stood tall on the heights of wisdom.
