14. 明朝有一首讽刺贪婪的小诗：

14. During the Ming Dynasty, there was a satirical poem that criticized greed:

15. 终日奔忙只为饥，才得有食又寒衣。置下绫罗身上穿，抬头却嫌房屋低。盖了高楼并大厦，床前缺少美貌妻。娶得娇妻并美妾，又想做官耀门楣。升官直到宰相府，还思显赫帝王仪。

15. Busily running all day just for hunger, only to find food and cold clothes. Once dressed in silks and brocades, I look up and complain that the house is too low.

40. 心魔其实就是另一个自己，情绪脆弱而敏感。直接否定只会令情绪产生更大的逆反，只有先认同再安抚，才能达到想要的结果。
