By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC) Chinese Philosopher

Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational but more importantly quotations can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values and beliefs that underlie the ways in which we perceive the world.

I have compiled over 800 quotations and short excerpts on this website. It is an eclectic mix but most of them are inspirational or insightful in nature and relate to knowledge, learning or personal development in some form.

If you love quotations as much as I do then you may wish to register to have a quote e-mailed to you once a week or more frequently by clicking on the button below and completing the form.

Quotations from Confucius:

 The nobler sort of man emphasizes the good qualities in others, and does not accentuate the bad. The inferior does.

Confucius, (551 BC - 479 BC) Chinese Philosopher



 Do not be desirous of having things done quickly. Do not look at small advantages. Desire to have things done quickly prevents their being done thoroughly. Looking at small advantages prevents great affairs from being accomplished.

Confucius, (551 BC - 479 BC) Chinese Philosopher



 By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection,which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
