CHAP. XVI. The Master said, 'When a number of people
are together, for a whole day, without their conversation turning on righteousness, and when they are fond of carrying out the suggestions of a small shrewdness;-- theirs is indeed a hard case.' CHAP. XVII. The Master said, 'The superior man in everything considers righteousness to be essential. He performs it according to the rules of propriety. He brings it forth in humility. He completes it with sincerity. This is indeed a superior man.' ¥H¦¨¤§¡B§g¤l«v¡C ¡i¤Q¤K³¹¡j¤l¤ê¡B§g¤l¯fµL¯à²j¡B¤£¯f¤H¤§¤£¤vª¾¤]¡C ¡i¤Q¤E³¹¡j¤l¤ê¡B§g¤l¯e¨S¥@¡B¦Ó¦W¤£ºÙ²j¡C ¡i¤G¤Q³¹¡j¤l¤ê¡B§g¤l¨D½Ñ¤v¡B¤p¤H¨D½Ñ¤H¡C ¡i¤Ü¤@³¹¡j¤l¤ê¡B§g¤l¬á¦Ó¤£ª§¡B¸s¦Ó¤£ÄÒ¡C ¡i¤Ü¤G³¹¡j¤l¤ê¡B§g¤l¤£¥H¨¥Á|¤H¡B¤£¥H CHAP.

What the mean man seeks, is in others.' CHAP. XXI. The Master said, 'The superior man is dignified, but does not wrangle. He is sociable, but not a partizan.' CHAP. XXII. The Master said, 'The superior man does not promote a man simply on account of his words, nor does he put aside good words because of the man.' |
