“芝蘭生幽谷，不以無人而不芳，
君子修道立德，不為窮困而改節。”

– 《孔子家語》, 中國文化先師孔子 (551–479 BC)

(蘭花生長在深谷中，不因爲沒有人來就不散發香氣；君子修身養性，不因爲窮困而輕易改變人格和志向。)

“An orchid in a deep forest releases its fragrance even if no one is around to appreciate it. Likewise, men of noble character hold firm to their integrity, undeterred by poverty.”

– Confucius (551–479 BC)
