離婁上 - Li Lou I

Library Resources
16 離婁上:
孟子曰:「恭者不侮人,儉者不奪人。侮奪人之君,惟恐不順焉,惡得為恭儉?恭儉豈可以聲音笑貌為哉?」
Li Lou I:
Mencius said, 'The respectful do not despise others. The economical do not plunder others. The prince who treats men with despite and plunders them, is only afraid that they may not prove obedient to him - how can he be regarded as respectful or economical? How can respectfulness and economy be made out of tones of the voice, and a smiling manner?'
