The Meaning of Moral
道德的含义
Both Confucius and Confucianism attached great importance to moral character, believing that one should not go against-the principles of morality when dealing with matters. Morality should not be forgotten under any circumstances, especially when one is in a desperate plight. The pursuit of fortune is a general desire of man. However, it must be restrained by morality. A fortune is acceptable when the means by which it is amassed is acceptable according to moral rules. But it is never acceptable when the means break the rules. Man lives for morality, not for fortune, and only in this way does life have value.
孔子和儒家思想都重视道德品质，相信人在处理事务时不应该违背道德原则。无论在任何情况下道德都不应该被遗忘，尤其是当一个人处于绝望的困境。追求财富是大多数人的愿望。然而，这必须被道德所限制。当一份财产符合道德原则才可以接受。但是，这是绝对不能接受当这份财产违反道德理论。人为道德而活，而不是为财富而活，只有这样做人生才有价值。
