Once there was a man who collected
feces, a woodcutter, and a beggar who met one another. These three people had nothing
to do and decided to sit and chat.
The beggar said, "If you
were the emperor, what would you do?."
The feces collector said If I
were to become emperor, I would order all the feces in the street to converge
on me. If anyone came to take the feces away, I would send the army to arrest
them immediately."
The woodcutter said, "If
I were to become emperor, I would go order a golden axe and daily use this
golden axe to chop wood."
Finally, the beggar said,
"If I were to become emperor, I would do nothing, sit by the fire every
day and eat baked sweet potatoes."
The story above makes it
clear that it is difficult for each person to break through the limitations of
personal experience and knowledge. Like, if you see a gem, you may marvel at
its beauty, others are thinking how much is it worth . People with
different cognitive abilities cannot talk to each other.
Therefore, arguing with
others is useless.
