The Three Armies can be deprived of their commanding officer, but even a common man cannot be deprived of his purpose.
ConfuciusHe who remembers from day to day what he has yet to learn, and from month to month what he has learned already, may be said to have a love of learning.
ConfuciusBe faithful and true of word; let thy walk be plain and lowly: thou wilt get on, though in savage land. If thy words be not faithful and true, thy walk plain and lowly, wilt thou get on, though in thine own home? Standing, see these words ranged before thee; driving, see them written upon the yoke. Then thou wilt get on.
Confucius
