Complete Explanation of the Analects of Confucius

Confucius said: "To govern a country with more than a thousand chariots, one must be cautious and single-minded, be honest and trustworthy, economize on expenses and care for the people. When using people's power, one must take into account their productive time." Zixia said: "A person's virtuous heart can outweigh his lustful heart; he can serve his parents with all his heart; he can devote his life to serving his emperor; he can be honest and trustworthy in his dealings with friends. Such a person, even if he humbles himself and says that he has not learned, I will definitely say that he has learned."
