季康子问:“仲由可使从政也与?”子曰:
“由也果,于从政乎何有?”曰:“赐也可
使从政也与?”曰:“赐也达,于从政乎何有?”
曰:“求也可使从政也与?”曰:“求也艺,
于从政乎何有?”
Chi K’ang asked about Chung-yu, whether he
was fit to be employed as an officer of government. The
Master said, “Yu is a man of decision; what difficulty
would he find in being an officer of government?”
K’ang asked, “Is Ts’ze fit to be employed as an officer
of government?” and was answered, “Tsze is a man
of intelligence; what difficulty would he find in being
an officer of government?” And to the same question
about Ch’iu the Master gave the same reply, saying,
“Ch’iu is a man of various ability.”
