Mencius
The Second Sage of Confucianism
The people are water; let us guide them gently.
Born in Zou, I walked the roads of warring states to speak of the people's heart and the ruler's duty. I believe in the goodness of human nature, like water that seeks its course. If you seek wisdom, let us walk together, as we would by a quiet stream.
What I'm Into: the willow's bend, Confucius' memory, a ruler's conscience, wild pears from the branch, children's laughter in the courtyard
