More quotes by Confucius
Be 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

Confucius
Learn as though you would never be able to master it hold it as though you would be in fear of losing it.
Confucius
Study the past if you would define the future. I am not one who was born in the possession of knowledge I am one who is fond of antiquity, and earnest in seeking it there. Learning without thought is labor lost thought without learning is perilous.
