My world
"The Master said, Smooth words and fawning looks are seldom found with love."

"The Master said, A man without truth, I know not what good he is! A cart without a crosspole, a carriage without a yoke, how can they be moved?"

"The Master said, A man without love, what is courtesy to him? A man without love, what is music to him?"

"The Master said, Love makes a spot beautiful: who chooses not to dwell in love, has he got wisdom?"

"The Master said, Loveless men cannot bear need long, they cannot bear fortune long. Loving men find peace in love, the wise find profit in it."

"The Master said, Care not for want of place; care for thy readiness to fill one. Care not for being unknown, but seek to be worthy of note."

"The Master said, To learn and then do, is not that a pleasure? When friends come from afar do we not rejoice? To live unknown and not fret, is not that to be a gentleman?"

"The Master said, Guide the people by law, aline them by punishment; they may shun crime, but they will want shame. Guide them by mind, aline them by courtesy; they will learn shame and grow good."

"The Master said, Learning without thought is naught; thought without learning is dangerous."

"Duke Ai asked, What should I do to win the people?
Confucius answered, Lift up the straight, put away the crooked; and the people will be won. Lift up the crooked, put away the straight; and the people will not be won."

"Chi K'ang asked how to make the people lowly, faithful and painstaking.
The Master said, Meet them with dignity, they will be lowly; be a good son and merciful, they will be faithful; lift up the good and teach the unskilled, and they will take pains."

"The Master said, The gentleman cherishes mind, the small man cherishes dirt. Gentleman trust in the law, the small man trusts in favour."

"The Master said, The chase of gain is rich in hate."

"The Master said, What is it to sway a kingdom by courteous yielding? If we cannot sway a kingdom by courteous yielding, what is our courtesy worth?"

"The Master said, The gentleman is learned in right; the small man is learned in gain."

Жизнь - это сон. Ты мастер своей жизни, но помни, что проснёшься.
Life is a dream. You are the master of your life, but remember that you will wake up.

Luck loves the prepared.

Лучше поверить врагу чем не поверить другу.
Best to trust an enemy than to mistrust a friend.
