Book I: Studying 学而第一 Chapter 10
子禽问于子贡:"夫子至于是邦也,必闻其政。求之与?抑与之与?"子贡曰:“夫子温、良、恭、俭、让以得之。夫子之求之也,其诸异乎人之求之与!”
Ziqin asked Zigong, "When our Master travels to a state, he always learns the affairs of its government. Does he seek out the information, or do people give it to him of their own accord?"
Zigong said, "Our Master obtains this information by being friendly, straightforward, reverential, frugal, and modest. The way our Master seeks things is different from the way others do!"
