A disciple of Confucius remarked, " A man who can love worthiness in man as he loves beauty in woman; who in his duties to his parents is ready to do his utmost, and in the service of his prince is ready to give up his life; who in intercourse with friends is found trustworthy in what he says, —— such a man, although men may say of him that he is an uneducated man, I must consider him to be really an educated man."
中文：子夏曰：“贤贤易色；事父母能竭其力，事君能致其身，与朋友交言而有信。虽曰未学，吾必谓之学矣。”
注释：孔子的一位学生说：“一个人能够热爱人的美德就像他热爱女人的美貌；在为父母尽义务时，准备做到最好，而在为国君服务时，准备献出自己的生命；与朋友交往时，他说的话总是被认为值得信任——这样一个人，尽管人们会说他是未受教育的人，但我一定会把他视为一个真正受过教育的人。”
