When There Are Duties To Perform [true]

In Ancient Times, Those Who Wished To Illuminate The World With Virtue First Brought Order To Their Nations. Wishing To Order Well Their Nations, They First Harmonized Their Families. Wishing To Harmonize Their Families, They First Cultivated Themselves. Wishing To Cultivate Themselves, They First Rectified Their Minds. Those Who Wished To Rectify Their Minds First Made Their Intentions Sincere.

The Superior Man * * * In Regard To His Speech * * * Is Anxious That It Should Be Sincere.

A Superior Man May Be Made To Go To The Well, But He Cannot Be Made To Go Down Into It. He May Be Imposed Upon, But He Cannot Be Fooled.

Settle One Difficulty, And You Keep A Hundred Away.

The More You Know Yourself, The More You Forgive Yourself.
