The ancestors of Confucius were of the royal family of Song. But his
great grandfather had moved to Lu State, where the family became impoverished.
Confucius did not receive much formal education and had no regular teacher.
At fifteen he had his mind bent on learning. From that time on, he studied
very hard, generally by himself, sometimes in consultation with more
elderly and experienced scholars. At thirty, he stood firm. At sixty,
his ear was obedient organ. At seventy, he could follow what his heart
desired without transgressing what was right. He studied extensively
and was familiar with the traditional literature of all times. And was
an inspiring teacher who taught tirelessly.
