The main deeds of Confucius, who knows? And what are some of his famous quotes?

1. Original text: At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Confucius said: "After my death, the business is also increasing, and the gift is also declining."

Zeng Zi said: "What is it? Zi said:

Discuss with those who are virtuous, and give good to those who say that they are not as good as themselves. They do not know their sons, but they regard their fathers; I don't know who he is, but I see him as a friend. I don't know his king, but I see what he makes; I don't know the place, but I don't know the grass and trees.

Therefore, it is said: "Living with good people, such as entering the room of Zhilan, and not smelling its fragrance for a long time, that is, it will melt with it." and ungood people, such as into the abalone, for a long time without smelling its smell, but also with it.

The one who hides the Dan is red, and the one who hides the lacquer is black, so that the gentleman must be careful about where he is. ”

2. Translation: Confucius said: "After me, Zixia will be more backward than before, and Zigong will be regressive than before" Zeng Zi asked

Why? Confucius said: "Zixia likes to be with people who are more virtuous than himself, (so his moral cultivation will improve day by day); Zigong likes to get along with people who are not as intelligent as his own, (so his moral cultivation will be gradually lost).

If you don't know how the child is, you can just look at the child's father (the child's future situation), if you don't know the person, you can look at the friends around him, if you don't know the master, just look at the messengers he sent, and if you don't know the local situation, you can look at the local grass and trees. Therefore, always being with people of noble character is like bathing in a house full of fragrance where Zhilan is planted, and after a long time, you will not be able to smell the fragrance, but you will already be full of fragrance; Being with people with poor character is like going to a shop that sells salted fish, and you can't smell it after a long time, and you also integrate into the environment; The place where the Dan is hidden will turn red after a long time, and the place where the lacquer is hidden will turn black after a long time, so a true gentleman must carefully choose the environment in which he lives. ”
