Abstract
Abstract Ssu-ma Niu grieved, saying, everyone else has brothers; I alone have none. Tsuhsia said, I have heard this saying, ‘. . . if [a gentleman] behaves with courtesy to others and observes the rules of ritual, then all within the Four Seas are his brothers.’ How can any true gentleman grieve that he is without brothers? Jan Jung asked about goodness. The Master said ‘Behave when away from home as though you were in the presence of an important guest. Deal with the common people as though you were officiating at an important sacrifice. Do not do to others what you would not like yourself.’
