Confucius' grandson comments about the Way and human nature. Tr. Legge (en)
The way of the superior man may be compared to what takes place in traveling, when to go to a distance we must first traverse the space that is near, and in ascending a height, when we must begin from the lower ground.
Legge XV.1.
《诗经·小雅·常棣》上说:“夫妻相敬并蒂花,互助互谅人人夸。兄弟相得一家乐,乐志谐和像琵琶。全家大小都融洽,如花如苗初发芽。”
