"Facts have proved that the inner temperament and quality of people who read and do not read, and who read more and those who read less, are by no means the same.

Later, it was extended to: if a person is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, such a person does not need to deliberately dress up, and will produce a temperament from the inside out, on the contrary, if there is no connotation, no matter how you dress up, you will not appear to have a temperament and demeanor.

The phrase "poetry and books in the belly" means that a person has read a lot of books, and his temperament is naturally outstanding, just like wearing gorgeous clothes. Describe a person who reads poetry and books and is knowledgeable, and will naturally show the elegant demeanor and graceful demeanor of a literati.
