子曰：「危者，安其位者也；亡者，保其存者也；亂者，有其治者也。是故君子安而不忘危，存而不忘亡，治而不忘亂，是以身安而國家可保也。」 - Confucius

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.
