《子路 - Zi Lu》 | English translation: James Legge [?] | Books referencing 《子路》 Library Resources |
| 17 | 子路: | 子夏為莒父宰，問政。子曰：「無欲速，無見小利。欲速，則不達；見小利，則大事不成。」 |
| Zi Lu: | Zi Xia, being governor of Ju Fu, asked about government. The Master said, "Do not be desirous to have things done quickly; do not look at small advantages. Desire to have things done quickly prevents their being done thoroughly. Looking at small advantages prevents great affairs from being accomplished." |
