The Master said, "There are those mean creatures! How impossible it is along with them to serve one's prince!Go here to read the introductory post to this serialized version of the Analects of Confucius.
"While they have not got their aims, their anxiety is how to get them. When they have got them, their anxiety is lest they should lose them.
"When they are anxious lest such things should be lost, there is nothing to which they will not proceed."
