Confucius - P5

The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.
Confucius

The superior man makes the difficulty to be overcome his first interest; success only comes later.
Confucius

The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.
Confucius

The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell.
Confucius

The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.
Confucius

There are three methods to gaining wisdom. The first is reflection, which is the highest. The second is limitation, which is the easiest. The third is experience, which is the bitterest.
Confucius

They must often change, who would be constant in happiness or wisdom.
Confucius

To be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it.
Confucius

To go beyond is as wrong as to fall short.
Confucius

To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.
Confucius

To see and listen to the wicked is already the beginning of wickedness.
Confucius
