Confucius – select quotes

Book Cover

.

The Master said, He who learns but does not think, is lost! He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.
~ in Analects

Women and people of low birth are very hard to deal with. If you are friendly they get out of hand, and if you keep your distance, they resent it.
~ in Analects

We don’t know yet about life, how can we know about death?
~ in Aphorisms
Men’s natures are alike, it is their habits that carry them apart.
~ in Analects

The absolute truth is indestructible. Being eternal, it is self-existent. Being self-existent, it is infinite. Being infinite, it is vast and deep. Being vast and deep, it is transcendental and intelligent.
~ in The Doctrine of Mean

A picture is a poem without words.

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

If you enjoy what you do, you’ll never work another day in your life.

To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice.

To see what is right, and not do it, is want of courage, or of principle.

The superior man thinks always of virtue, the common man thinks of comfort.

Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.
