The superior man does what is proper to the station in which he is; he does not desire to go beyond this. In a position of wealth and honor, he does what is proper to a position of wealth and honor. In a poor and low position, he does what is proper to a poor and low position.
ConfuciusIs any one able for one day to apply his strength to virtue? I have not seen the case in which his strength would be sufficient.
