Lan Jue's gradually excited voice echoed in the classroom, and everyone was listening attentively, without any other voices besides him.

"According to later investigations, only the crew of the lifeboat No. 6 and No. 2 jumped in, but they were immediately discovered by the officials in charge there and called them out. They did not say anything, so they obeyed orders and returned to the deck."

"A famous writer once said, 'This is because they were born to be educated in the ideal of responsibility: responsibility is more important than other considerations, responsibility and discipline are synonymous, and in the hours before the Titanic sinking, this ideal of responsibility and discipline proved to be the most powerful temperament that is difficult to erode.'"

"It is this sense of responsibility that has made firefighter Falman Cavill return to Boiler Room 4 when he feels that he might have left a little earlier to see if there are other boilers trapped there; it is this sense of responsibility that has caused signalman Ron to fire signal flares on the deck and shake the Moss signal light, no matter how hopeless it seems; it is this sense of responsibility that has made the boiler Henming, who is assigned to the lifeboat as a paddle, give this opportunity to others, leave it on the deck, and still release the canvas dinghy at the last moment; it is this sense of responsibility that has caused the radio operator Phillips and Bryde to be the rusher.

In the press room, Smith told them that they could abandon the ship, but they still did not leave, and continued to typing on the keyboard, typing the seconds of the end of life, sending telecommunications and the last hope; it was this sense of responsibility that made the chief engineer Bell and all the engineers work hard in the computer room, even if they knew they had no time to climb onto the deck and lost any chance of escape; it was this sense of responsibility that made the band leader Henry Hartley and other musicians play the brisk jazz and the solemn religious hymn 'God is with us' until the sea water brings their lives and singing to the bottom of the sea..."

"All this can't be explained in just one sentence of 'courage'. There is a Western proverb: 'Even a hero can become a coward in desperate situations.' But the 'Titanic' turns countless ordinary people into heroes! The sense of responsibility lifts up the value of people, the nobility of people, and the beauty of people."

"This is the spirit of aristocracy! Each of them is the noble in my mind!"

"When the survivors of the Titanic discuss who survived and who died, since there are far more surviving women and children than men, people think that the myth of "women and children are preferred" at sea rules. But the company affiliated to the Titanic told the media: There is no so-called 'maritime rules' that require men to make such a great sacrifice. What they do can only be said to be a kind of care for the weak, both on land and on sea. This is their personal choice, not any rules and regulations, and navigation rules can be achieved. They adhere to the ancient but always young human value."

"At the time, billionaire Asder asked the lifeboat officer if he could accompany his pregnant wife Madeline on board. The crew member said 'Women and children first' and he returned to the deck like a real gentleman and sat there quietly until the ship sank, and the big chimney fell on the ship smashed him into the Atlantic Ocean. Asder was the only billionaire on the Titanic and one of the richest people in the world. His assets were able to build eleven Titanic giant ships."

"Smith, the captain of the Titanic, has a good personal relationship with almost all the rich people on the ship, and many of them are his good friends, including Asder. But Asder did not go to Captain Smith to walk around the "backdoor" and make some peace and make him on the boat. If he went to find the captain, there was a good reason that his wife was five months pregnant. But Asder did not do this, or he did not think that he should do this. It was an era without the concept of "backdoor", an era where gentlemanly demeanor and a real man. He was a real aristocrat!"

"Another rich man on the Titanic, whose wealth was second only to Aster, was named Strauss, and he and his wife were on the boat. The Strauss also brought more than a dozen servants and waiters to prepare for the waiters on the boat to serve themselves when they were not enough or were inconvenient. It is conceivable how rich and imposing they were. After the Titanic hit the iceberg, Mrs. Strauss almost got on the lifeboat No. 8, but just about to step on the side, she suddenly changed her mind and came back to be with Mr. Strauss and said, "For so many years, we have lived together, and I will go where you go!" She gave her place in the boat to a young maid, and threw her fur coat to the maid, saying, "I will never need it anymore!"

"When someone asked Mr. Straus, 67,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"When I knew I had no chance of rescue, the famous pipe tycoon Benjamin Guggenheim put on the most gorgeous evening gown, saying, 'I'm going to die decently, like a gentleman.' The note he left for his wife said, 'This boat will not have any woman because I took the position of the lifeboat and left on the deck. I will not die like a beast, like a real man. I am a nobleman!'"

The story ended here, and Lan Jue's eyes were already a little wet, but it was filled with a kind of fanaticism that could infect everyone.

"I don't know whether you can become a noble in the future, but today I am standing here and becoming a lecturer at Huameng National Academy. In this first lesson, I must tell you what a real noble is!"

"The spiritual aristocrats are not necessarily rich, and the rich are not necessarily nobles. And the spirit of aristocrats cannot be bought with money! If one day you can stand up and be such a nobleman, then I will be proud of you!"

(Some story about the Titanic is quoted from Danny Alan Butler's "Never Sink")
