19.21子贡曰:“君子之过也,如日月之食焉。过也,人皆见之;更也,人皆仰之。”
【辜译】
同一位学生(子贡)说:“伟大人物的过错就像日食和月食,当他犯错时,所有人都能看到。但是,当他从失败中重新站起来时,所有人都会像以前一样敬仰他。”
The same disciple remarked, "The failings of a great man are eclipses of the sun and moon. When he fails, all men see it; but, when he recovers from his failing,all men look up to him as before."
