Mencius, Chinese Wisdom:
Noble natures are calm and content.
The song of a dying bird is plaintive; the
words of a dying man are
just.
The wise place virtue in thought.
A good word has heat enough for three winters; a hard one wounds like
six months of cold.
To yield
to Heaven is to save one's self.
If there is too much rice in the kitchen, there
are starving people on the road.
To help another helps yourself.
Drink less and learn more.
The spirits know your secret sins.
Kwan said: "Now the whole kingdom
is
drowning; how is it that you do not save it?"
Mencius relied: "A drowning kingdom must be
rescued by right
principles, not like a drowning person, by the hand."
