The superior man bends his attention

【第二章】
【一節】有子曰、其為人也孝弟、而好犯上者鮮矣、不好犯上、
而好作亂者、未之有也。
【二節】君子務本、本立、而道生、孝弟也者、其為仁之本與。

CHAP. II.
1. The philosopher Yu said, 'They are few who,
being filial and fraternal, are fond of offending against their
superiors. There have been none, who, not liking to offend
against their superiors, have been fond of stirring up confusion.
2. 'The superior man bends his attention to what is
radical.
