11 季氏:
孔子曰:「見善如不及,見不善如探湯。吾見其人矣,吾聞其語矣。隱居以求其志,行義以達其道。吾聞其語矣,未見其人也。」
Ji Shi:
Confucius said, "Contemplating good, and pursuing it, as if they could not reach it; contemplating evil and shrinking from it, as they would from thrusting the hand into boiling water - I have seen such men, as I have heard such words. Living in retirement to study their aims, and practicing righteousness to carry out their principles - I have heard these words, but I have not seen such men."
