Learn, As If Never Overtaking Your Object,

Guide Them By Edicts, Keep Them In Line With Punishments, And The Common People Will Stay Out Of Trouble But Will Have No Sense Of Shame. Guide Them By Virtue, Keep Them In Line With The Rites, And They Will, Besides Having A Sense Of Shame, Reform Themselves.

A Superior Man Is Modest In His Speech, But Exceeds In His Actions.

The Superior Man Is Aware Of Righteousness, The Inferior Man Is Aware Of Advantage.

He Who Learns But Does Not Think, Is Lost! He Who Thinks But Does Not Learn Is In Great Danger... Men Of Superior Mind Busy Themselves First Getting At The Root Of Things; When They Succeed, The Right Course Is Open To Them.

When You Have Faults, Do Not Fear To Abandon Them.
