| 36 | 36 | 【原文】 待小人不难于严,而难于不恶;待君子不难于恭,而难于有礼。 【今译】 对待品行不端之人,严厉并不难,难的是对其不要过分;对待品德高尚之人,尊敬并不难,难的是对其合乎礼法。 | In dealing with mean people, the difficulty lies not in being too strict; but in avoiding a fastidious attitude. In dealing with noble-spirited people, the difficulty lies not in being deferential, but in observing the proprieties. |
