If you lead the people with correctness, who will dare not be correct?

A man exercising no forethought will soon experience present sorrow.

The Master said, “What a worthy man was Yan Hui! Living in a narrow alley, subsisting upon meager bits of rice and water—other people could not have borne such hardship, and yet it never spoiled Hui’s joy. What a worthy man was Hui!” (Analects 6.11)

A superior man in dealing with the world is not for anything or against anything. He follows righteousness as the standard.

The man who in view of gain thinks of righteousness; who in the view of danger is prepared to give up his life; and who does not forget an old agreement however far back it extends - such a man may be reckoned a complete man.

Humanity is the equity of the heart.

If your desire is for good, the people will be good.
