When you know a thing, to hold that you know it, and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it - this is knowledge.
ConfuciusThe superior man does what is proper to the station in which he is; he does not desire to go beyond this.
ConfuciusA gentleman can withstand hardships; it is only the small man who, when submitted to them, is swept off his feet.
ConfuciusWhen the perfect order prevails, the world is like a home shared by all. Leaders are capable and virtuous. Everyone loves and respects their own parents and children as well as the parents and children of others. The old are cared for, adults have jobs, children are nourished and educated. There is a means of support for all those who are disabled or find themselves alone in the world. Everyone has an appropriate role to play in the family and society. Devotion to public duty leaves no place for idleness. Scheming for ill gain is unknown. Sharing displaces selfishness and materialism.
