2. A sentence about a gentleman in Mencius:

Mencius inherited and developed Confucius' theory and put forward the idea that a gentleman should be kind.

Mencius and Confucius have very similar views on the gentleman, but Mencius has more detailed requirements on the behavior and ideals of the gentleman, and he also advocates that the gentleman is used by the gentleman.

A gentleman leads without sending, and jumps.

No father, no king, all animals.

Mencius said, "The people are the most important, the country is the second, and the monarch is the light."

Only the benevolent should hold high positions. Being unkind and in a high position is to spread its evil to the public.

A gentleman doesn't complain about heaven or care about people.

3,' University' about the gentleman's sentence:

"cultivate one's morality, keep one's family in order, govern the country and level the world"

The so-called sincere person: don't deceive yourself, such as bad smell, such as lewd. This is called modesty. Therefore, a gentleman must be cautious and independent.

It is not good for a villain to do nothing, go to see a gentleman by all means, and then get bored. Not good, but good. It is no good for a person to see himself if he sees his lungs and liver. This is called sincerity in the middle and tangible outside. Therefore, a gentleman must be cautious and independent.

A gentleman has himself and then asks for help, without himself and then doesn't care about others. What he hides is unforgivable, but he can describe others without it.

As the poem says, "The king never forgets before the play!" A gentleman kisses his relatives with virtue. The villain enjoys himself, but benefits from it. This will never be forgotten.

4, "the doctrine of the mean" about the gentleman's sentence:

A gentleman who is careful not to see it is almost unheard of. Don't be subtle, don't be subtle, so a gentleman is cautious.

Lutz asked "strong". Confucius said, "Is the south stronger? What is the strength of the north? Restraint and reinforcement? Be lenient and wait for teaching, but there is no way to report, and the south is strong. A gentleman lives there. Brother Jin, be tireless in death, and be strong in the north. The strong live there. Therefore, a gentleman is harmonious but not flowing, strong but not upright. 」

Say what you care about and do what you care about. A gentleman is not stubborn!
