后生可畏 hòushēng kě wèi
孔子游历的路上，碰见一个小孩正在用泥土堆一座城堡，自己坐在里面不出来，也不给孔子的车子让路。孔子忍不住问："你为什么不避让车子？""我只听说车子要绕着城走，没有听说过城堡还要避让车子的！"孩子说。
While traveling, Confucius met a little kid building a castle with mud. He sat inside, refusing to come out or give way to Confucius' carriage. Confucius could not help but ask him, "Why didn't you keep clear?" The child replied, "I've heard the carriage should drive around the castle, but never that the castle should avoid the carriage."
孔子非常惊讶：这么小的孩子竟会说出这种话，实在是了不起。"你这么小的年纪，懂得的事理真不少呀！"孔子说。小孩却回答道："我听人说，鱼生下来，三天就会游泳；兔子生下来，三天就能在地里跑，马生下来，三天就可跟着母马行走。这些都是自然的事，有什么大小之别呢？"孔子感叹地说："好啊，我现在才知道少年人实在了不起呀！"
Confucius was very surprised that such a small child could say such words. "You are so young, but you know much!" he said. The kid merely replied, "I've heard that fish can swim three days after they're born; rabbits can run in the field three days after they're born; a horse can walk and follow its mother after three days. This is natural, so what's the difference between old and young?" Confucius exclaimed, "Now I finally know how amazing a young human child can be! "
