正当利用时间！你要理解什么，不要舍近求远。——歌德。

Proper use of our time! What do you want to understand, not to further.

教育是人的根本，若把这根本问题忽略了，那就叫舍本逐末，舍近求远。

Education is the foundation for everyone, if we neglect this basic issue, we will be "renouncing the essential while pursuing the trivia, ignoring what is near and seeking what is far away."

所以，英明的君主宁愿舍近求远，这样就能保全功业，尊崇“贤人”，下级也就会乐于尽心竭力了。

Thus the wise ruler would rather take the long process than the short process, so that he is able to complete his achievements, respect the Capable and have his subordinates give their best for him.

生活宛如一条蜿蜒曲折的小径，周围鲜花绽放，彩蝶飞舞，美果压枝。但是，我们很多人却舍近求远，不惜费时去寻找幸福。

Life is like a winding path surrounded by flowers, butterflies, and delicious fruit, but many of us spend much time looking for happiness around the next corner.
