Chinese Philosopher

When we see men of worth, we should think of equaling them; when we see men of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves.
Sincerity is the way of Heaven. The attainment of sincerity is the way of men.
I am not bothered by the fact that I am unknown. I am bothered when I do not know others.
Fine words and an insinuating appearance are seldom associated with true virtue
When you see a man of worth, think of how you may emulate him. When you see one who is unworthy, examine yourself.
He who wishes to secure the good of others, has already secured his own.
Reviewing what you have learned and learning anew, you are fit to be a teacher.
Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
The superior man acts before he speaks, and afterwards speaks according to his action.
They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.
