We don’t only depend on “images” to arouse passion and excitement in our lives. More importantly, we must have a rational spirit and help each other … - Bo Xilai

People always love expressing themselves, and they often pretend to be modest in their words, saying that they are no good at this or that. This is particularly common among friends. But even if people are actually modest, there is no benefit to their behavior.

In interactions with friends, we all care about examining each others’ images, and we carefully emphasize the images that we present to our friends. The closer one is with someone, the more we care about this. People never want to feel insignificant in the eyes of someone else, unless we despise this person and want them to quickly forget us.

We should not be immeasurably satisfied with the qualities of a mediocre person, but we should also avoid artificial modesty.
