“From the age of fifteen on, I have been intent upon learning; from
thirty on, I have established myself; from forty on, I have not been
confused; from fifty on, I have known the mandate of Heaven; from sixty
on, my ear has been attuned; from seventy on, I have followed my heart’s
desire without transgressing what is right.” –Confucius on self-cultivation
