Example sentences

智慧 高 的 人 听闻 聽聞 「 道 」， 会 會 努力 实践 實踐 ； 中等 智慧 的 人 听闻 聽聞 「 道 」， 会 會 半信半疑 ； 愚昧 的 人 听闻 聽聞 「 道 」， 则 則 会 會 嘲笑 它 。「 道 」 若 不 被 嘲笑 ， 就 称 稱 不 上 真正 的 道 。
Those of high wisdom, when they hear the "Way", strive to practice it; those of moderate wisdom, when they hear the "Way", are half-believing and half-doubting; the ignorant, when they hear the "Way", mock it. If the "Way" is not mocked, it cannot be called the true "Way".
