Confucius and Socrates
Confucius (Chinese, 孔子; c. 551–479 BC),Socrates (Greek: Σωκράτης; c. 469 BC – 399 BC) both bear unusual or ugly appearances, according to the then aesthetics, with upturned nose with flaring nostrils, bulging eyes.
Socrates made several famous statements (translated), compared here with the similar ones from Confucius and his pupils:
“Know Yourself!”
子曰:知之為知之,不知為不知,是知也。
“The unexamined life is not worth living.”
子曰:見賢思齊焉,見不賢而自省也。
曾子曰:吾日三省吾身;為人謀而不忠乎? 與朋友交而不信乎?傳不習乎?
“I am not an Athenian or a Greek, but a citizen of the world.”
子曰:大道之行也,與三代之英,丘未之逮也,而有志焉。大道之行也,天下為公。選賢與能,講信脩睦,故人不獨親其親,不獨子其子,使老有所終,壯有所用,幼有所長,矜寡孤獨廢疾者,皆有所養。男有分,女有歸。貨惡其棄於地也,不必藏於己;力惡其不出於身也,不必為己。是故謀閉而不興,盜竊亂賊而不作,故外戶而不閉,是謂大同。今大道既隱,天下為家,各親其親,各子其子,貨力為己,大人世及以為禮。城郭溝池以為固,禮義以為紀;以正君臣,以篤父子,以睦兄弟,以和夫婦,以設制度,以立田里,以賢勇知,以功為己。故謀用是作,而兵由此起。禹、湯、文、武、成王、周公,由此其選也。此六君子者,未有不謹於禮者也。以著其義,以考其信,著有過,刑仁講讓,示民有常。如有不由此者,在埶者去,眾以為殃,是謂小康。
