In antiquity the sage kings recognized that mens nature is bad and that their tendencies were not being corrected and their lawlessness controlled. – Xun Zi
Since the nature of people is bad, to become corrected they must be taught by teachers and to be orderly they must acquire ritual and moral principles. – Xun Zi
In order to properly understand the big picture, everyone should fear becoming mentally clouded and obsessed with one small section of truth. – Xun Zi
Quarreling over food and drink, having neither scruples nor shame, not knowing right from wrong, not trying to avoid death or injury, not fearful of greater strength or of greater numbers, greedily aware only of food and drink – such is the bravery of the dog and boar. – Xun Zi
With fame, you cant trust everybody. You cant depend on them being there for you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got and what you can bring to their life. Its not a relationship-its a leech. – Chris Brown
