《述而》 Passage 7.34
子曰:「若聖與仁,則吾豈敢?抑為之不厭,誨人不倦,則可謂云爾已矣。」公西華曰:「正唯弟子不能學也。」
Legge Translation (1861)
The Master said: "The sage and the man of perfect virtue — how dare I rank myself with them? It may simply be said of me, that I strive to become such without satiety, and teach others without being weary."Gongxi Hua said: "This is just what we, the disciples, cannot imitate you in."
