子游问孝,子曰:“今之孝者,是谓能养。至于犬马,皆能有养。不敬,何以别乎?”
【译文】 子游问孝,孔子说:“现在的孝顺,只是能赡养老人。即使是犬马,都会得到饲养。不敬重,有何区别?”

Every individual has a place to fill in the world and is important in some respect whether he chooses to be so or not.
New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other reason but because they are not already common.
