The Superior Man: from The Analects of Confucius

The only quote that i felt stood out to me was XIV.29

XIV.29: The Master said, " The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions."

This quote stood out to me because it was the one that i could relate to the most and it also struck me that someone that lived during that time could think that way because most people of importance were born into it. They didn't have to work for it nor did they have to work in order for people to respect them. Confucius thoughts were that someone who wants to do the right thing wouldn't have to talk about it to prove his point, his actions would be more than enough for others to understand.
