13.10
子曰:“苟有用我者,期月[1]而已可也,
三年有成。”
The Master said, “If there were (any of the
princes) who would employ me, in the course of
twelve months, I should have done something
considerable. In three years, the government would
be perfected.”
【注释】[1]期(j~):同“朞”。 期月:一周年。
【译文】孔子说:“如果有人用我治理国家,
一年就可以有成效,三年就能成功。”
【解读】怀才不遇,对有些人可能是一种打击,
甚至会被毁灭。但对孔子来说,胸怀远大目标、
实现美好的理想,是任何势力打压不下去的,
