　　流水不腐，戶樞不蠹

　　流動(dòng)的水不會(huì)腐惡發(fā)臭，轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)的門軸不會(huì)生蟲朽爛。現(xiàn)在多指對(duì)現(xiàn)有的思想不斷地進(jìn)行批判和反思，不斷堅(jiān)持批評(píng)和自我批評(píng)，才能使思想不僵化不保守，不斷更新進(jìn)步。其中隱含的基本哲理是：運(yùn)動(dòng)是世界存在的本質(zhì)；萬事萬物在運(yùn)動(dòng)中保持生機(jī)，煥發(fā)活力。

　　Running Water Never Turns Foul; Moving Hinges Attract No Worms

　　This concept describes that objects frequently in motion are not affected by external factors, and can last a long time. In modern days, it means that existing thought and ideas must be continuously reviewed and critiqued, and that there must be criticism and self-examination to avoid becoming conservative and inflexible. This is the way to ensure continuing change and progress. The philosophical implication is that motion is the foundation of the world and the source of vitality of all things.

　　引例 流水不腐，戶樞不蠹，動(dòng)也。形氣亦然。（《呂氏春秋·盡數(shù)》）（流動(dòng)的水不會(huì)腐惡發(fā)臭，轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)的門軸不會(huì)生蟲朽爛，這是由于它們不斷運(yùn)動(dòng)。人的身體和精神也是這樣。）

　　Running water never turns foul, and moving hinges attract no worms, all thanks to continuous motion. This also applies to the human mind and body. (Master Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals)
