Like the appearing bringing about the seeing. | | 《·》: | 子曰：「不患人之不己知，患不知人也。」 | | The Master said, "I will not be afflicted at men's not knowing me; I will be afflicted that I do not know men." | | 《·》: | 故王之不王，不為也，非不能也。 | | Therefore your Majesty's not exercising the royal sway, is because you do not do it, not because you are not able to do it. | | 《》: | 天下皆知美之為美，斯惡已 | | All in the world know the beauty of the beautiful, and in doing this they have (the idea of) what ugliness is. | | 《·》: | 且白馬非馬，乃仲尼之所取。 | | 《·》: | 北山愚公長息曰：「汝心之固，固不可徹，曾不若孀妻弱子。」 |
