VIII. How Hûi held fast the course of the Mean.

Zhongyong VIII. 1.

The Master said "This was the manner of Hûi:– he made choice of the Mean, and whenever he got hold of what was good, he clasped it firmly, as if wearing it on his breast, and did not lose it."

Legge VIII.

孔子说:“颜回的为人,选择了中庸之道,得到一点真理,就诚诚恳恳地保持在胸怀之中,不丢掉它。”

白话翻译

Le Maître dit : "Il y avait la manière de Hùi. Il avait fait le choix du Milieu, et à chaque fois qu'il te,ait quelque chose de bien, il le serrait fermement contr lui, comme s'il le portait dans sa poitrine, et il ne le perdait pas."
