Book 13: 《子路》 Zi Lu
《子路》 Passage 13.17
子夏為莒父宰，問政。子曰：「無欲速，無見小利。欲速，則不達；見小利，則大事不成。」
Legge Translation (1861)
Zixia, being governor of Jufu, asked about government. The Master said: "Do not be desirous to have things done quickly; do not look at small advantages. Desire to have things done quickly prevents their being done thoroughly. Looking at small advantages prevents great affairs from being brought to a successful termination."
