昔仲尼，師項橐，古聖賢，尚勤學。
Long ago Confucius took Xiang Tuo as a teacher. The sages of old still studied hard.

From the Father's Lecture Notes
Even Confucius took a seven-year-old as his teacher; even a man who became chief minister kept reading at home. This part of the book begins here on purpose: first show that people who are already accomplished still learn, so that the poor, the old and the young of the next nine lectures can stand on firm ground.
Translated from Yikonglu's Father's Lecture Notes for the Three Character Classic, written for a parent teaching a child.
