| 71 | 檀弓上: | 喪事，欲其縱縱爾；吉事，欲其折折爾。故喪事雖遽，不陵節；吉事雖止，不怠。故騷騷爾則野，鼎鼎爾則小人。君子蓋猶猶爾。 |
| Tan Gong I: | It is desirable that affairs of mourning should be gone about with urgency, and festive affairs in a leisurely way. Hence, though affairs of mourning require urgency, they should not go beyond the prescribed rules; and though festive affairs may be delayed, they should not be transacted negligently. Hurry therefore (in the former) becomes rudeness, and too much ease (in the latter) shows a small man. The superior man will conduct himself in them as they severally require. |
