Mencius said, 'There are five ways in which the superior man effects his teaching.
'There are some on whom his influence descends like seasonable rain.
'There are some whose virtue he perfects, and some of whose talents he assists the development.
'There are some whose inquiries he answers.
'There are some who privately cultivate and correct themselves.
These five ways are the methods in which the superior man effects his teaching.'~ James Legge translation via nothingistic.org ~
