Attack the evil that is within yourself, rather than attacking the evil that is in others.
ConfuciusThe silent treasuring up of knowledge; learning without satiety; and instructing others without being wearied: which one of these things belongs to me?
ConfuciusA man should demand much from himself, but little from others. When you meet a man of worth, think how you may attain to his excellence. When you meet an unworthy one, then look within and examine yourself.
ConfuciusIf a man withdraws his mind from the love of beauty, and applies it as sincerely to the love of the virtuous; if, in serving his parents, he can exert his utmost strength; if, in serving his prince, he can devote his life; if in his intercourse with his friends, his words are sincere - although men say that he has not learned, I will certainly say that he has.
