"A.
There’s only one way to know if
people are good or evil: look at the
choices they make.
We each contain precious and
worthless, great and small.
Never injure the great for the sake of
the small, or the precious for the sake
of the worthless.
Small people nurture what is small in
them; great people nurture what is
great in them.
B.
Don’t do what should not be done,
and don’t desire what should not be
desired.
Abide by this one precept, and
everything else will follow.
C.
Great is the man who has not lost his
childlike heart.
D.
The way of truth is like a great road.
It is not difficult to know it.
The evil is only that men will not
seek it.
E.
Treat others as you would be treated.
Devote yourself to that, for there’s no
more direct approach to Humanity."
- Mencius
