XX. On government: showing principally how it depends on the character of the officers administering it, and how that depends on the character of the sovereign himself.

Zhongyong XX. 10.

The Master said, "To be fond of learning is to be near to knowledge. To practice with vigor is to be near to magnanimity. To possess the feeling of shame is to be near to energy.

Legge XX.10.

懂得这三种,便知道怎样修养自身了;知道怎样修养自身,便知道怎样管理别人了;知道怎样管理别人,就知道怎样治理天下和国家了。”
