That was beneath you, st. Here, Confucius has some words for you to think about:
Confucius, "The great philosopher and teacher of China, became one of the most influential men who ever lived. His goal was to help men and women develop a moral sense of responsibility towards others, and to show respect to their elders and superiors."
"What you do not like done to yourself, do not do unto others"
"The superior man is firm in the right way, and not merely firm",
"The essence of knowledge is, having it, to apply it, not having it, to confess your ignorance",
"In a country well-governed, power is something to be ashamed of. In a country badly governed, wealth is something to be ashamed of",
"He who wishes to secure the good of others, has already secured his own",
"He who will not economize will have to agonize",
"Study the past if you would divine the future",
"To see what is right, and not do it, is want of courage, or of principle". |
