"The superior man, when resting in safety,..." - Quote by Confucius

“A scholar who loves comfort is not fit to be called a scholar.”

“Eat at your own as you would the table of a king.”

“Expect much from yourself and little from others and you will avoid incurring resentments”

“A superior man in dealing with the world is not for anything or against anything. He follows righteousness as the standard.”

“The superior man is satisfied and composed; the mean man is always full of distress.”

“The superior man is firm in the right way and not merely firm.”

“There is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent.”

“With caution judge of probability. Things deemed unlikely, e'en impossible, experience oft hath proved to be true.”

“If you see a man approaching you with the obvious intent of doing you good, you should run for your life.”
