子曰:“君子无所争,必也射乎!揖让而升,下而饮,其争也君子。”
Confucius remarked, “a gentlemen never compete anything he does, —— except perhaps in archery. But even then, when he wins he courteously makes his bow before he advances to take his place among the winners; and when he has lost the walks down and drinks his cup of forfeit. Thus, even in the case of competition, he shows himself to be a gentlemen.”
