原文
子曰:“君子不重则不威。学则不固。主忠信。无友不如己者。过则勿惮改。”
英译
Confucius said, "A noble will lose stateliness and honor if he or she fails to keep sober. Study saves one out from ignorance. Loyalty and faith-keeping should be one's dominant action principle. Never make friends with the ones who do not deserve you in all aspects. Don't be afraid to rectify a mistake after making it."
