中國的東漢王朝，有一個著名的書法家，他的名字叫做張超，歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
他的祖先的名字是張良，張良是協助劉邦建立西漢王朝的最重要的核心幕僚之一。
他有很高的文學素養。

與他同時代的所有人中，他寫的中文草書是被所有人公認最好的。
他的中文草書作品被當代很多人蒐集並且珍藏。
雖然他如此的知名，但是他也有他很佩服的人，這個人是他的一個好朋友，這個好朋友的名字叫做(袁遺)。
他曾經讚美袁遺。
袁遺的道德水平超過當代的所有人，他的度量非常的大，他是一個忠誠又正直的人。他非常的用功讀書，他熟讀許多古代的經典書籍，他可以在很短的時間內寫出很棒的文章，他的知識非常的豐富。
我認為我們這個時代中，應該沒有人的知識與能力可以與他相比較。
這句成語被用來形容一個人的文章或是作品非常的好，這個人的文章或是作品超過與這個人同時代的所有人。
