He that boasts of his own knowledge proclaims ignorance.

夸耀知识实乃无知。

Honestly speaking, I don't agree with this opinion, at least I beg to differ and have some reservations about it.

I know what it means, it just tells us we should be modest and keep a humble stance even if we have had a wide range of knowledge and a deep understanding about some fields.

However, this is an outgoing world, and the public would always favor those who can fully show their knowlege and capabilities, that is, the more information you pass to others, the more easily that you will be known by others and appreciated by the right people who can help you get what you want and realize your ambition.

On the contrary, if you are reluctant to show what your unique skills are or what you have known, or you are weak in this point, you may encounter some obstacles on your way of realizing your dreams.

Besides, only if you feel really about yourself, you can be humble, otherwise, being humble is nothing more than a castle in the air.

All in all, there is no limitation of knowlege, and it will be never too much, but we also need to learn how to show off our abilities and knowledge effectively.

 

Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain.

人类发明语言是为了满足他们内心深处对抱怨的需求。

From Lily Tomlin.

Interesting. Maybe it is ture in some way.

Man invented language to express their feelings, in a more effective way and in various forms.

There are many things beyond the capability of expressions and behaviours, we need language, always in different tones, to express our feelings.

But remember, words may be false and full of art, signs are the natural language of the heart.

Complaints also can serve as an effective way of relieve our stresses.

Try to make good use of complaints and don't be influenced too deeply by its negative effects.
