元代是题跋的兴盛期。到了元代,倪瓒那一批画家就彻底不顾忌“签名"。他们的文人画,讲究"诗书入画”,有诗有序,作品才算完整,于是题跋成了书画的重要组成部分。题跋中除了签名,一般还要交代创作的时间、地点、人物,或者写首诗配合画面,生怕后人感受不到画家的情绪。这样一來,对画家的要求就高了,不仅要会写诗,还要书法好,最重要的是会搭配,整体美观。画画的人变了,画作自然也就不同了,就好比文艺青年喜欢往各种“无聊”的地方增加难度,并且乐此不疲。
太阳内部不断发生氢核聚变,产生氦,同时释放巨大的能量。一方面,太阳的巨大质量产生引力,令其自身向中心坍缩;另一方面,核反应产生的高热,导致它膨胀。这两种趋势形成一种平衡,让太阳能保持稳定的形态。但随着时间的推移,太阳核心中的氢会越来越少,氦越来越多,核心密度越来越大,于是核心就会收缩。随后发生新的热核反应,这种反应会释放更大的能量,点燃太阳的氢壳层。因此太阳本身会更热且不断膨张,变成一颗红巨星,它的直径将相当于现在的100倍。到那时,太阳会将靠近它的水星和金星一口吞掉,地球也许不会被吞噬,但必然早就被烤焦,一切生物都将灰飞烟灭。
谦虚并非故意自贬身价,做客套应酬,像虚伪者所常表现的假面孔;它是起于自知之明,知道自己所已知的比起世间所可知的非常渺小,未知世界随着已知世界扩大,愈前走发现天边愈远。他发现宇宙的无边无底,对之不能不起崇高雄伟之感,反观自己渺小,就不能不起谦虚之感。谦虚必起于自我渺小的意识,谦虚者的心目中必有一种为自己所不知不能的高不可攀的东西,老是要抬着头去望它。这东西可以是全体宇宙,可以是圣贤豪杰,也可以是一个崇高的理想。一个人必须见地高远,知道天高地厚才能真正地谦虚,不知道天高地厚的人就老是觉得自己伟大,海若未曾望洋,就以为“天下之美尽在己”。谦虚有它消极方面,就是自我渺小的意识;也有它积极方面,就是高远的瞻瞩与恢阔的胸襟。
子曰:“学而时习之,不亦说乎?有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎?人不知而不愠,不亦君子乎?”子曰:“学而不思则罔,思而不学则殆。子曰:“知之者不如好之者,好之者不如乐之者。”子曰:“三人行,必有我师焉。择其善者而从之,其不善者而改之。”子夏曰:“博学而笃志,切问而近思,仁在其中矣。”
