If You Want Happiness For A Year,

A Nation's Character Is Typified By Its Dancers.

If Doing What Ought To Be Done Be Made The First Business And Success A Secondary Consideration--is Not This The Way To Exalt Virtue?

If The People Be Led By Laws, And Uniformity Sought To Be Given Them By Punishments, They Will Try To Avoid The Punishment, But Have No Sense Of Shame.

At 15 I Set My Heart On Learning; At 30 I Firmly Took My Stand; At 40 I Had No Delusions; At 50 I Knew The Mandate Of Heaven; At 60 My Ear Was Attuned; At 70 I Followed My Heart's Desire Without Overstepping The Boundaries Of Right.

A Gentleman Wishes To Be Slow To Speak And Quick To Act.
