“What the superior person seeks is in themselves. What the mean person seeks is in others.”
Confucius
“The way of the superior person is threefold; virtuous, they are free from anxieties; wise they are free from perplexities; and bold they are free from fear.”
“The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them.”
“Noblesse oblige; or, superior advantages bind you to larger generosity”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“He does not care for flowers. Calls them rubbish, and cannot tell one from another, and thinks it is superior to feel like that.”
Mark Twain
“Any concept of one person being superior to another can lead to racism.”
Walter Lang
“So it is naturally with the male and the female; the one is superior, the other inferior; the one governs, the other is governed; and the same rule must necessarily hold good with respect to all mankind.”
Aristotle
