What use would the rites have if a state was not governed with the rites and decorum?”子曰：“居上不宽，为礼不敬，临丧不哀，吾何以观之哉？”Confucius said，“What is there for me to observe of a man if he is not broad-minded when he is in high position, not reverent when he is performing the rites, and not sad when he is in mourning?”子曰：“君子博学于文，约之于礼，亦可以弗畔矣夫。
