子曰:「學而時習之, 不亦説乎。 有朋自遠方來, 不亦樂乎。人不知而不慍, 不亦君子乎 」
Confucius said: "Isn’t it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned? Isn’t it also great when friends visit from distant places? If people do not recognize me and it doesn’t bother me, am I not a Superior Man?"
子曰:「不患人之不己知, 患不知人也。」
Confucius said: "I am not bothered by the fact that I am unknown. I am bothered when I do not know others."
子曰:「吾十有五而志于學, 三十而立, 四十而不惑, 五十而知天命, 六十而耳順, 七十而從心所欲, 不踰矩。」
Confucius said: "At fifteen my heart was set on learning; at thirty I stood firm; at forty I had no more doubts; at fifty I knew the mandate of heaven; at sixty my ear was obedient; at seventy I could follow my heart’s desire without transgressing the norm."
子曰:「温故而知新, 可以爲師矣。」
Confucius said: "Reviewing what you have learned and learning anew, you are fit to be a teacher."
子曰:「學而不思則罔, 思而不學則殆。」
Confucius said: "To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous."
