《論語》

（一）子曰：“學而時習之，不亦悅乎？有朋自遠方來，不亦樂乎？人不知而不慍，不亦君子乎？”

（二）有子曰：“其為人也孝悌，而好犯上者，鮮矣。不好犯上而好作亂者，未之有也。君子務本，本立而道生。孝悌也者，其為仁之本與？”

（三）子曰：“巧言令色，鮮矣仁?！?br />

THE ANALECTS

1. The Master said, To learn and at due times to repeat what one has learnt, is that not after all a pleasure? That friends should come to one from afar, is this not after all delightful? To remain unsound even though one’s merits are unrecognized by others, is that not after all what is expected of a gentleman?

2. Master Yu said, Those who in private life behave well towards their parents and elder brothers, in public life seldom show a disposition to resist the authority of their superiors. And as for such men starting a revolution, no instance of it has ever occurred. It is upon the trunk that a gentleman works. When that is firmly set up, the Way grows. And surely proper behavior towards parents and elder brothers is the trunk of Goodness?

3. The Master said, ‘Clever talk and a pretentious manner’ are seldom found in the Good.
