The story you believe is the one that will control you.
One must not always think that feeling is everything. Art is nothing without form.
与孟子不同,荀子主张“性恶”,认为人性本恶。因而更强调人为的作用,通过后天的人为的努力才能达到“善”。没有本性那么人为的努力就不能对症下药,没有人为的努力,本性就不能改善。所以主张“性伪合”,天生的本性和后天的努力对人都有重要影响,而后天的努力更为重要,它是我们能够自己掌控的,“学不可以已”的意义就更大。
I don't let the world dictate my worth.
Trust your instincts, they know the way.
