The Analects of Confucius
Confucius's own account of his gradual progress
and attainments.
1. "理譯" (James Legge):
The Master said: "At fifteen, I had my mind bent
on learning.
At thirty, I stood firm.
At forty, I had no doubts.
At
fifty, I know the decrees of Heaven.
At sixty, my ear was an obedient organ
for the reception of truth.
At seventy, I could follow what my heart
desired, without transgressing what was right."
2. "威譯" (Arthur Waley):
The Master said, At fifteen I set my heart upon
learning.
At thirty, I had planted my feet firm upon the ground.
At
forty, I no longer suffered from perplexities.
At fifty, I knew what were
the biddings of Heaven.
At sixty, I heard them with docile ear.
At
seventy, I could follow the dictates of my own heart; for what I desired no
longer overstepped the boundaries of right.
