When I was in college, science students said us art students were lack of reason, they always tried to find something ridiculous in what we said or did:). Reason is the much lower level than "wise". Do you want to stop me saying anything in this forum, California:), I just got over 1,000(!!!!- Yeah!) by working so hard here :D

I am not reasonable being, say nothing of wise...

Well, it is an interpretation of his saying!
Think of what he meant with "mice" and we get closer to this interpretation;-)

Well, let me turn the steering wheel back a little bit...

I would mention another important game which works no less than heroes in history - Mahjong!

Unfortunately I can't play mahjong myself - it's too complicated for me - I wonder who else do not know how to play mahjong. But I know how mahjong is leading people play/ work as a pair and at the same time as enemies. People being not able to be successful in game will stop others from any opportunities to approach success. This is a scar I have to scratch it heavily, you can find a lot of examples in life.
Hey guys who play mahjong, I need something more about the game...
Thanks

Is there any one who knows XuXiake ? He was the most famous traveler in old China. He travel most every place of China . Most of beautiful places in China was recorded in his work named Xuxiake Travel. I think he was own Marco Polo.

Indeed! I couldn't agree more:)

The basic soul of the Policy Reform of Shang Yang was to demolish the hereditary system of aristocratic group so as to start the new system of the squirearchy and its centralized government. His advanced concept towards social development was really a great push to the Chinese history.

Shang Yang died a miserable death, torn apart by five horses... , but worthwhile, for he is remembered till today.
