子曰：“君子成人之美,不成人之恶。小人反之。”译文

理雅各:The Master said, "The superior man seeks to perfect the admirable qualities of men, and does not seek to perfect their bad qualities. The mean man does the opposite of this."

辜鸿铭:Confucius remarked, “A good and wise man encourages men to develop the good qualities in their nature, and not their bad qualities; whereas, a bad man and a fool does the very opposite.”
