Tsze-lu / 19

樊迟问仁。子曰，居处恭，执事敬，与人忠，虽之夷狄，不可弃也。

Modern Chinese Guide

樊迟问怎样才是仁。孔子说：平日居家态度恭敬，办理事务严肃认真，待人忠诚。即使到了没有教化的偏远地方，这些也是不能丢弃的。

James Legge Translation

Fan Ch'ih asked about perfect virtue. The Master said, "It is, in retirement, to be sedately grave; in the management of business, to be reverently attentive; in intercourse with others, to be strictly sincere. Though a man go among rude, uncultivated tribes, these qualities may not be neglected."
