The More Man Meditates Upon Good Thoughts,

A Youth, When At Home, Should Be Filial, And, Abroad, Respectful To His Elders.

If One Learns From Others, But Does Not Think, One Will Be Bewildered. If, On The Other Hand, One Thinks But Does Not Learn From Others, One Will Be In Peril.

At Fifteen My Mind Was Directed To Study, And At Thirty I Knew Where To Stand.

Let The States Of Equilibrium And Harmony Exist In Perfection, And A Happy Order Will Prevail Throughout Heaven And Earth, And All Things Will Be Nourished And Flourish.

The Wise Man Admires Water, The Kind Man Admires Mountains. The Wise Man Moves, The Kind Man Rests. The Wise Man Is Happy, The Kind Man Is Firm.
