In A Hamlet Of Ten Households, There Are Bound To Be Those Who Are My Equal In Doing Their Best For Others And In Being Trustworthy In What They Say, But They Are Unlikely To Be As Eager To Learn As I Am.

The Superior Man Has A Dignified Ease Without Pride. The Mean Man Has Pride Without A Dignified Ease.

The Way Of The Superior Person Is Threefold; Virtuous, They Are Free From Anxieties; Wise They Are Free From Perplexities; And Bold They Are Free From Fear.
