If the old people don't talk about the past,
The young people might forget about the genealogies.

匹夫有責.---Pi3 fu you3 ze2.
Every man has a share of responsibility,
For the rise and fall of his country.

人善被人欺,---Ren2 shan4 bei3 ren2 qi,
馬善被人騎.---Ma3 shan4 bei3 ren2 qi2.
A virtuous man is likely to be fooled.
A good horse is always being ridden.
