Learning without reflecting leads to confusion.
Review the old and learn the new.
Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you.
Make no social distinctions in teaching.
When seeing a person with high caliber, strive to be his equal.
To learn and at due time to repeat what one has learnt, isn’t that after all a pleasure?
己所不欲勿施于人
温故而知新
学而不思则罔
有教无类
见贤思齐
学而时习之,不亦乐乎?
