Things That Are Done, It Is Needless To Speak About...things That Are Past, It Is Needless To Blame.

Base Yourself In Loyalty And Trust. Don't Be Companion With Those Who Are Not Your Moral Equal. When You Make A Mistake, Don't Hesitate To Correct It.

To Be Fond Of Learning Is To Draw Close To Wisdom. To Practice With Vigor Is To Draw Close To Benevolence. To Know The Sense Of Shame Is To Draw Close To Courage. He Who Knows These Three Things Knows How To Cultivate His Own Character. Knowing How To Cultivate His Own Character, He Knows How To Govern Other Men. Knowing How To Govern Other Men, He Knows How To Govern The World, Its States, And Its Families.
