Confucius Lunyu 6-22
Give a fish to a man; he has food for a day.
Teach a man to fish; he learns a skill for life.
To worry before the common people worries; To enjoy only after the people can enjoy.
Everyone eats and drinks; yet only few appreciate the taste of food.
What you do not wish upon yourself,
extend not to others.
Like burying one’s head in the sand
Seeing it once is better than being told 100 times
Every child born, has innate goodness
