Chapter 17, Part 22 - Confucius

The Master said, "Hard is it to deal with who will stuff himself with food the whole day, without applying his mind to anything good! Are there not gamesters and chess players? To be one of these would still be better than doing nothing at all."
~ James Legge translation via The Internet Classics Archive ~
