菜根谭　是明朝还初道人洪应明收集编著的一部论述修养、人生、处世、出世的语录集，为旷古稀世的奇珍宝训。

对于人的正心修身、养性育德，有不可思议的潜移默化的力量。

其文字简炼明隽，兼采雅俗。

似语录，而有语录所没有的趣味；似随笔，而有随笔所不易及的整饬；似训诫，而有训诫所缺乏的亲切醒豁；且有雨余山色，夜静钟声，点染其间，其所言清霏有味，风月无边。

洪应明 菜根谭　人知名位为乐，不知无名无位之乐为最真；人知饥寒为虑，不知不饥不寒之虑更为甚。

People know that fame and rank make men happy.

But they do not know that the happiest men are those without fame and rank.

People know that hunger and cold are what men worry about.

But they do not know that there are other worries that could be worse.
