What do the Chinese classics say about "goodness"?

1. There is nothing better for a gentleman than to do good to others.

--Meng Ke, "Meng Zi - Gongsun Chou"

2. The goodness of a man is like a crown for his head and a foot for his feet.

-[Chinese] Liu Di, "Liu Zi - Prudence and Independence"

3. The virtue of man in me is not to be forgotten; the virtue of me in man is not to be thought of.

--[Chinese] Liu Xiang and others, "Strategies of the Warring States - Wei Ce IV"

4, Orchids are born in the valley, not for the sake of Mo service and not fragrant; Boats in the river and the sea, not for the sake of Mo multiply and not float; Gentlemen walk in the text, not for the sake of Mo know and stop resting.

--[Chinese] Liu An, "Huainanzi - said mountain training"

5, do not be evil, do not be good and do not do.

-[Chinese] Pei Songzhi "Three Kingdoms Zhi Note - Shu Shu"

6, all for the good, it must be ordinary to do, not to seek out. Once sought, it is a good name.

--[Chinese] Lu Shiyi, "Siji Records Series"
