Confucius

The superior man understands what is right the inferior man understands what will sell.

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.

Speak the truth, do not yield to anger give, if thou art asked for little by these three steps thou wilt go near the gods.

When anger rises, think of the consequences.

Virtue is not left to stand alone. He who practices it will have neighbors.

Old age, believe me, is a good and pleasant thing. It is true you are gently shouldered off the stage, but then you are given such a comfortable front stall as spectator.
