The Superior Man, Even When He Is

Listen Much, Keep Silent When In Doubt, And Always Take Heed Of The Tongue; Thou Wilt Make Few Mistakes. See Much, Beware Of Pitfalls, And Always Give Heed To Thy Walk; Thou Wilt Have Little To Rue. If Thy Words Are Seldom Wrong, Thy Deeds Leave Little To Rue, Pay Will Follow.

He Who Rules By Moral Force Is Like The Pole Star, Which Remains In Place While All The Lesser Stars Do Homage To It.

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.

Grieve Not That Men Do Not Know You; Grieve That You Do Not Know Men.

To Study And Not Think Is A Waste. To Think And Not Study Is Dangerous.
