Modern Chinese Guide

孔子说：君子之道有三个方面，我都没能做到：有仁德的人不忧愁，有智慧的人不迷惑，勇敢的人不畏惧。子贡说：这正是老师在说自己啊。

James Legge Translation

1. The Master said, "The way of the superior man is threefold, but I am not equal to it. Virtuous, he is free from anxieties; wise, he is free from perplexities; bold, he is free from fear. 2. Tsze-kung said, "Master, that is what you yourself say."
