子曰,不愤不启,不悱不发,擧一隅,不以三隅反,则不复也。
白话导读
孔子说:不到他苦思冥想仍不得其解的时候,不去开导他;不到他想说却说不出来的时候,不去启发他。教他一个角,他不能由此推知另外三个角,我就不再教他了。
James Legge 英译
The Master said, "I do not open up the truth to one who is not eager to get knowledge, nor help out any one who is not anxious to explain himself. When I have presented one corner of a subject to any one, and he cannot from it learn the other three, I do not repeat my lesson."
