About Confucius
Confucius (traditionally 28 September 551 B.C. – 479 B.C.) was a Chinese social philosopher, whose teachings deeply influenced East Asian life and thought. "Confucius" is a latinization of the Chinese 孔夫子, Kong Fu Zi or K'ung-fu-tzu, literally "Master Kong", but he is usually referred to in China with a simpler version of this honorific as 孔子, Kongzi, or Kǒng Zǐ.

It is only he who is possessed of the most complete sincerity that can exist under heaven, who can give its full development to his nature. Able to give its full development to his own nature, he can do the same to the nature of other men. Able to give its full development to the nature of other men, he can give their full development to the natures of animals and things.

Esenţialul este să numeşti corect lucrurile. Dacă denumirile nu sînt corecte, cuvintele nu se mai potrivesc. Dacă cuvintele nu se mai potrivesc, treburile statului merg prost. Dacă treburile statului merg prost, nici riturile şi muzica nu mai pot înflori. Dacă riturile şi muzica nu mai pot înflori, judecăţile şi pedepsele încetează să mai fie drepte. Dacă judecăţile şi pedepsele încetează să mai fie drepte, poporul nu mai ştie cum trebuie să se poarte.
