Confucius Quotes
· Even when walking in the company of two other men, I am bound to be able to learn from them. The good points of the one I copy; the bad points of the other I correct in myself.
· It is not the failure of others to appreciate your abilities that should trouble you, but rather your failure to appreciate theirs.
· Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
· The man of wisdom is never in two minds about right and wrong; the man of benevolence never worries about the future; the man of courage is never afraid.
· The superior man is distressed by the limitations of his ability; he is not distressed by the fact that men do not recognize the ability that he has.
· Those who do not study are only cattle dressed up in men's clothes.
· When you meet someone better than yourself, turn your thoughts to becoming his equal. When you meet someone not as good as you are, look within and examine yourself.
· Person who chases two rabbits catches neither.
(* The ChinaMan had it going on! Don't dwell too tightly on them; straining may result! -Robert)
