Quotation: Language

"If the language is not clear,
   what is said is not what is meant;
     If what is said is not what is meant,
       what should be done remains undone;
          If what should be done remains undone,
            moral and arts deteriorate;
               If  moral and arts deteriorate,
                 justice will go astray;
                    If justice goes astray,
                      people will stand out in a helpless confusion."
                       
(Confucius)

                     "Jika bahasa tidak jelas,
                   apa yang dimaksudkan bukanlah yang dimaksudkan;
                 Jika apa yang dimaksudkan bukanlah yang dimaksudkan,
               apa yang seharusnya dilakukan tak terlaksana;
             Jika apa yang seharusnya dilakukan tak terlaksana,
           moral dan seni akan merosot;
        Jika moral dan seni sudah merosot,
      keadilan akan tersesat;
   Jika Keadilan telah tersesat,
masyarakat akan terus dalam kebingungan tanpa harapan."
