子曰，志士，仁人，无求生以害仁，有杀身以成仁。
Modern Chinese Guide
孔子说：志士仁人，不会为了求得活命而损害仁德，只会牺牲自己来成全仁德。
James Legge Translation
The Master said, "The determined scholar and the man of virtue will not seek to live at the expense of injuring their virtue. They will even sacrifice their lives to preserve their virtue complete."
