At the age of fifty, I learned what human resources can't control. Sixty years old, I can listen to different opinions. Only when I am seventy years old can I do whatever I want without overstepping the bounds. "

Confucius said, "If you review what you have learned, you can get new knowledge and experience from it, so you can be a teacher by virtue of it."

Confucius sighed by the river: "Time is like running water, day and night."

Confucius said, "The commander-in-chief of the three armed forces can be changed, but the ambition of a man cannot be changed."

Xia Zi said: "I read widely and learn from others. I can stick to my ambition, ask questions seriously and think more about current events. Benevolence is one of them. "
