《雍也》 Passage 6.11

子曰:「賢哉回也!一簞食,一瓢飲,在陋巷。人不堪其憂,回也不改其樂。賢哉回也!」

Legge Translation (1861)

The Master said: "Admirable indeed was the virtue of Hui! With a single bamboo dish of rice, a single gourd dish of drink, and living in his mean narrow lane, while others could not have endured the distress, he did not allow his joy to be affected by it. Admirable indeed was the virtue of Hui!"
