頌古非今
- to eulogize the past and belittle the present
但是這種尊重，是給歷史以一定的科學的地位，是尊重歷史的辯證法的發展，而不是頌古非今，不是讚揚任何封建的毒素。 [MSC, trad.]
但是这种尊重，是给历史以一定的科学的地位，是尊重历史的辩证法的发展，而不是颂古非今，不是赞扬任何封建的毒素。 [MSC, simp.]- From: 1940, 毛澤東 (Mao Zedong), 《新民主主義論》 (On New Democracy), 《毛澤東選集》. English translation based on the Foreign Languages Press edition
- Dànshì zhè zhǒng zūnzhòng, shì gěi lìshǐ yǐ yīdìng de kēxué de dìwèi, shì zūnzhòng lìshǐ de biànzhèngfǎ de fāzhǎn, ér bùshì sònggǔfēijīn, bùshì zànyáng rènhé fēngjiàn de dúsù.
- However, respect for history means giving it its proper place as a science, respecting its dialectical development, and not eulogizing the past at the expense of the present or praising every drop of feudal poison.
