24 乾:
“亢”之为言也,知进而不知退,知存而不知亡,知得而不知丧。其唯圣人乎!知进退存亡而不失其正者,其唯圣人乎!
Qian:
The force of that phrase--'exceeding the proper limits'--indicates the knowing to advance but not to retire; to maintain but not to let perish to get but not to lose. He only is the sage who knows to advance and to retire, to maintain and to let perish; and that without ever acting incorrectly. Yes, he only is the sage!
