《学行卷第一 - Learning and Practice》 | English translation: Jeffrey S. Bullock [?] | Library Resources |
| 23 | 学行卷第... : | 或曰：“使我纡朱怀金，其乐不可量也！”曰：“纡朱怀金者之乐，不如颜氏子之乐。颜氏子之乐也内，纡朱怀金者之乐也外。”或曰：“请问屡空之内。”曰：“颜不孔，虽得天下，不足以为乐。”“然亦有苦乎？”曰：“颜苦孔之卓之至也。”或人瞿然曰：“兹苦也，祇其所以为乐也与？” |

Someone said: Allow me to tie the red sash and carry the gold stamp, and my happiness could not be measured. Yangzi said: The happiness of one who holds a position in government is not as good as Yan Yuan's happiness. Yan Yuan's happiness [came from] inside [himself], the happiness of one who holds a position in government [comes from] outside [himself]. The other said: May I ask what comes from inside oneself when one is always poor. Yangzi said: If Yan did not have Confucius, even if he had got all under Heaven, it would not have been sufficient to make him happy. The other said: But he still suffered, did he not? Yangzi said: Yan's suffering lay in the height of Confucius's profundity . Startled, the other said: Well then, was this suffering not just the reason he was happy? |
