Lies of revenge

Great is the way of the sage! It is magnificent, and it develops all things, and reaches the highest point in the sky. Great is it! There are three hundred rites and three thousand awe-inspiring manners. Only when the right person is there can they act. Therefore, it is said: If one does not reach the highest virtue, the highest way will not be condensed there. Therefore, a gentleman respects virtue and morality and seeks knowledge. He strives for the great and the subtle. He is extremely wise and follows the doctrine of the mean. He reviews the old and learns the new, and is honest and respects the rites. Therefore, when in a high position, do not be arrogant, and when serving an inferior, do not be disloyal. If a country is ruled by the right way, his words will be enough to inspire it; if a country is ruled by the wrong way, his silence will be enough to tolerate it.

The Creator after Destruction

Confucius said: "When you enter a country, you can know its teachings. The people are gentle and kind, which is the teaching of the Book of Songs; broad-minded and far-sighted, which is the teaching of the Book of Documents; broad-minded and easy-going, which is the teaching of Music; clean, quiet, and subtle, which is the teaching of the Book of Changes; respectful, frugal, and solemn, which is the teaching of the Book of Rites; and the use of words and metaphors to compare things is the teaching of the Spring and Autumn Annals. Therefore, the mistakes of the Book of Songs are foolish; the mistakes of the Book of Documents are slander; the mistakes of Music are extravagant; the mistakes of the Book of Changes are thieves; the mistakes of the Book of Rites are troublesome; and the mistakes of the Spring and Autumn Annals are disorder. The people are gentle and kind without being foolish, which means they are deeply in the Book of Songs; broad-minded and easy-going, which is not extravagant, which means they are deeply in the Book of Documents; broad-minded and easy-going, which is not extravagant, which means they are deeply in the Book of Music; clean, quiet, and subtle, which is not thieves, which means they are deeply in the Book of Changes; respectful, frugal, and solemn, which is not troublesome, which means they are deeply in the Book of Rites; the use of words and metaphors to compare things is not disorderly, which means they are deeply in the Spring and Autumn Annals."

The world is not worth it, but you are worth it

The son of a good blacksmith must learn to make fur coats; the son of a good archer must learn to make winnowing baskets; the beginner must do the opposite, with the chariot in front of the horse. A gentleman who observes these three things can be determined to study.
