Good people strengthen themselves ceaselessly
Confucius
When a person should be spoken with, and you don't speak with them, you lose them. When a person shouldn't be spoken with and you speak to them, you waste your breath. The wise do not lose people, nor do they waste their breath.
Confucius
Great as heaven and earth are, men still find some things in them with which to be dissatisfied. Thus it is that, were the superior man to speak of his way in all its greatness, nothing in the world would be found able to embrace it, and were he to speak of it in its minuteness, nothing in the world would be found able to split it.
Confucius
Gentlemen cherish worth the vulgar cherish dirt. Gentlemen trust in justice the vulgar trust in favor.
Confucius
When you serve your mother and father it is okay to try to correct them once in a while. But if you see that they are not going to listen to you, keep your respect for them and don't distance yourself from them. Work without complaining.
Confucius
How transcendent is the virtue of the middle conduct! Rare for a long time has been its practice among the people.
Confucius
