- 仁也者，人也。合而言之，道也。
- 莫之为而为者，天也；莫之至而致者，命也。
- 君子之于禽兽也，见其生，不忍见其死，闻其声，不忍食其肉，是以君子远包厨也。 When you#ve seen how birds and animals live, you cannot bear to see them killed; when you#ve heard how birds chirp and animals cry, you cannot bear to eat their meat. Therefore, a man of honor has his kitchen placed out of sight and hearing (or keeps away from his kitchen).
- 流水之为物也，不盈科不行；君子之志于道也，不成章不达。
- 得道者多助，失道者寡助。寡助之至，亲戚畔之；多助之至，天下顺之。
