"At seventy, I could follow the dictates..." - Quote by Confucius

“To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous.”

“To be fond of learning is near to wisdom; to practice with vigor is near to benevolence; and to be conscious of shame is near to fortitude.”

“If you yourself desire establishment, then help others to get establishment; if you yourself want success, then help others to attain success.”

“The creed of our democracy is that liberty is acquired and kept by men and women who are strong and self-reliant, and possessed of such wisdom as God gives mankind - men and women who are just, and understanding, and generous to others - men and women who are capable of disciplining themselves. For they are the rulers and they must rule themselves.”

“He who does not seek advice is a fool. His folly blinds him to Truth and makes him evil, stubborn, and a danger to his fellow man.”

“The way out is through the door. Why is it that no one will use this method?”

“A man who says he can see through a woman is missing a lot.-Groucho MarxA man's only as old as the woman he feels.”

“It is comparatively a faint and reflected beauty that is admired, not an essential and intrinsic one. It is because the old are weak, feel their mortality, and think that they have measured the strength of man. They will not boast; they will be frank and humble. Well, let them have the few poor comforts they can keep. Humility is still a very human virtue. They look back on life, and so see not into the future. The prospect of the young is forward and unbounded, mingling the future with the present.”

“Bashfulness is an ornament to youth, but a reproach to old age.”
