Default Quotes from...

Confucius!

"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.”

“Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.”

“Life is really simple, but men insist on making it complicated.”

“The Three Armies can be deprived of their commanding officer, but even a common man cannot be deprived of his purpose.”

“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.”

"Only the supremely wise and the abysmally ignorant do not change."

"It is as hard to be poor without complaining as to be rich without becoming arrogant."

"To see what is right and not to do it, that is cowardice."

" To govern simply by statute and to maintain order by means of penalties is to render the people evasive and devoid of a sense of shame."
