Chapter 13, Part 6 - Confucius

The Master said, "When a prince's personal conduct is correct, his government is effective without the issuing of orders. If his personal conduct is not correct, he may issue orders, but they will not be followed."
~ James Legge translation via The Internet Classics Archive ~
