-Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall
-It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop
-Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it
-When anger rises, think of the consequences
-When prosperity comes, do not use all of it
-Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.

Listen to my wise words


--我們最大的榮耀不是從不下降，而是在每次我們下降時都在上升
--你走的慢不要緊，只要你不停下來
--一切都有它的美，但不是每個人都看到它
--當憤怒升起時，想想結果
--當繁榮來了，不要使用它
-真正的知识就是知道一个人的无知的程度。

A Love-Song
The moon comes forth, bright in the sky;
A lovelier sight to draw my eye
Is she, that lady fair.
She round my heart has fixed love's chain,
But all my longings are in vain.
'Tis hard the grief to bear.

The moon comes forth, a splendid sight;
More winning far that lady bright,
Object of my desire!
Deep-seated is my anxious grief;
In vain I seek to find relief;
While glows the secret fire.

The rising moon shines mild and fair;
More bright is she, whose beauty rare
My heart with longing fills.
With eager wish I pine in vain;
O for relief from constant pain,
Which through my bosom thrills!

-Confucius


A Wife Mourns For Her Husband

The dolichos grows and covers the thorn,
O'er the waste is the dragon-plant creeping.
The man of my heart is away and I mourn--
What home have I, lonely and weeping?

Covering the jujubes the dolichos grows,
The graves many dragon-plants cover;
But where is the man on whose breast I'd repose?
No home have I, having no lover!

Fair to see was the pillow of horn,
And fair the bed-chamber's adorning;
But the man of my heart is not here, and I mourn
All alone, and wait for the morning.

While the long days of summer pass over my head,
And long winter nights leave their traces,
I'm alone! Till a hundred of years shall have fled,
And then I shall meet his embraces.

Through the long winter nights I am burdened with fears,
Through the long summer days I am lonely;
But when time shall have counted its hundreds of years
I then shall be his--and his only!

Confucius
