Cheng Changming's translation is: Confucius said: "When I was fifteen, I was interested in learning, when I was 30 years old, I could be firmly self-reliant. When I was forty years old, I have already understood all kinds of things without feeling puzzle, fifty When you are old, you know what you have, you can distinguish between your 60-year-old.
And Li Zei's translation in his "The Analects of Read" is: Confucius said: "I am determined to learn in the age of fifteen, and I will not confuse it. I am not confused. I am 50 years old. I agree with my own destiny. Rong is all criticized, what is the seventy-year-old heart wants to make anything, but it does not violate the ceremonial rules. "
15 years old: I am curious about everything, and the knowledge is particularly strong. Everything wants to learn, full of brains is the problem. A new knowledge is particularly fast. No matter what, only work. Thirty years old: It is a good time to stand the words of your own. Fortunately. It is the age of a separate opinion. Forty-year-old: A total of forty, people have no ability to make questions about existing learning, theory, etc., and make challenging and constructive views. There is no problem with "not confuse". There is no problem, there will be no further study. 50 years old: A 50th, it is clear that it is much better, how high can be achieved. It is impossible to have a big breakthrough and develop. I have already had a few or two. 60 years old: One hundred and sixty, for a variety of new insights, learning, arguments, etc., no arguments, and even discuss the ability. Seventy years old: can only "want" "heart". I can only think in my heart, "I want to be young XX, I also have yyy"! There is no ability to do it. It is only ideas in your own thinking box.
