|《论语》The Confucian Analects
学而时习之，不亦说乎？
It is indeed a pleasure to acquire knowledge and, as you go on acquiring, to put into practice what you have acquired.
有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎?五经四书
A greater pleasure still it is when friends of congenial minds come from afar to seek you b
ecause of your attainments.
温故而知新，可以为师矣。
If a man will constantly go over what he has acquired and keep continually adding to it new acquirements, he may become a teacher of men.
学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆。
Study without thinking is labor lost. Thinking without study is perilous.
君子周而不比，小人比而不周。
A wise man is impartial, not neutral. A fool is neutral but not impartial.
知之为知之，不知为不知，是知也。
To know what it is that you know, and to know what it is that you do not know, —that is understanding.
