I think we have been through a period where too many people have been given to understand that if they have a problem, it's the government's job to cope with it. 'I have a problem, I'll get a grant.' 'I'm homeless, the government must house me.' They're casting their problem on society. And, you know, there is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families. And no government can do anything except through people, and people must look to themselves first. It's our duty to look after ourselves and then, also to look after our neighbour. People have got the entitlements too much in mind, without the obligations.

译文：想把家庭治理好先学会修养身心，说话做事一定要谨慎小心，读书的目的在于明白道理，见识一定要高远。赏析：修身齐家治国平天下，这是古人的人生目标。修身为首要任务，而修身又以谨言慎行为根本。言行不慎，不仅会招惹流言是非，更会玷污自己的名节。要想把修身做好，首先要去读书，不读书就不能明理，不明理就是莽夫一个。
