士君子應有第一等胸襟、第一等學識、斯有第一等道心。俗云:「在山泉水清,出山泉水濁」,日久見人心,士窮見節義,而今而後,庶幾無愧!」

心底無私天地寬,士君子胸懷百千山川,眼光學識開拓千萬疆土,有此胸襟氣度,萬邦來朝,天下歸心,三字經云:「人之初,性本善。」山泉本是清,人心本來明,外在影響,讓山泉水濁、人心性迷。人生在世,人海浮沈,唯有經歷的事情多了,才能真正地認清自己,堅定道心,捨生取義,義盡才能仁至,從今以後,不愧天地良心。

An intellectual superior man should have the first-rate aspiration and the first-rate learning and, as a result thereof, the first-rate heart immersed in Dao. As the saying goes, “Spring in the mountain has clear water, and spring outside the mountain has muddy water”; it takes a long time to see through a person’s heart and it is only in hardship will an intellectual superior man show his true color. From that point on, the said intellectual superior man should never feel ashamed of himself.
