我本情谊之人何必深陷苦情我本凉薄之人何必深陷苦情
[wŏ bĕn qíng yì zhī rén hé bì shēn xiàn kŭ qíng wŏ bĕn liáng bó zhī rén hé bì shēn xiàn kŭ qíng]
'As a passionate person, why should I fall into bitter emotion? Or as an indifferent person, why should I immerse myself in sorrow?' This reflects on personal emotional disposition and questioning why emotions should lead one into misery.
