He did not learn from only one teacher and was tireless in learning; thus everyone praised him as "erudite." Not only was Confucius erudite, he also delighted in imparting his knowledge to his students.

If you don't know, admit it;" and "Brilliant and passionate about learning, he is not be ashamed to seek answers, even from someone who is inferior;" etc. With regards to teaching, he said, "Insatiable in learning and tireless in teaching;" "I will be there to inspire when the student has struggled to understand something but cannot, be there to inspire when the student wants to explain it but cannot. If I point out one principle and the student cannot derive three others, I will not point it out again."* "Teach according to the student's aptitude;" etc. As to conducting oneself, he said, "Do not do unto others what you do not want done to yourself;" "Pride leads to loss while modesty brings benefit;" "Judge people by their actions, not just by their words;" etc. These sayings continue to exert important significance and far reaching influence on today's society.

*lit. If I point out one corner of a square to a student and he cannot see the other three corners, I will not point it out again.
