《盡心上 - Jin Xin I》 | Library Resources |
37 | 盡心上: | 孟子曰:「食而弗愛,豕交之也;愛而不敬,獸畜之也。恭敬者,幣之未將者也。恭敬而無實,君子不可虛拘。」 |
Jin Xin I: | Mencius said, 'To feed a scholar and not love him, is to treat him as a pig. To love him and not respect him, is to keep him as a domestic animal. Honouring and respecting are what exist before any offering of gifts. If there be honouring and respecting without the reality of them, a superior man may not be retained by such empty demonstrations.' |
