He who exercises government by means of his virtue may be compared to the north polar star, which keeps its place and all the stars turn towards it.
ConfuciusDon't worry if people don't recognize your merits; worry that you may not recognize theirs.
ConfuciusThe will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.
ConfuciusBehave when away from home as though you were in the presence of an honored guest. Employ the people as though you were assisting at an important sacrifice. Do not do to others what you would not like yourself. Then there will be no feelings of opposition to you, whether it is the affairs of a state that you are handling or the affairs of a family.
Confucius
