子曰：“直哉史鱼！邦有道如矢，邦无道如矢。君子哉，蘧伯玉！邦有道则仕，邦无道则可卷而怀之。”
1The Master said, 'Truly straightforward was the historiographer Yu. When good government prevailed in his State, he was like an arrow. When bad government prevailed, he was like an arrow.
2A superior man indeed is Chu Po-yu! When good government prevails in his state, he is to be found in office. When bad government prevails, he can roll his principles up, and keep them in his breast.'
