Sima Niu, a disciple of Confucius, once asked Kong Yu how to be a gentleman. Confucius said to him, "A gentleman is not worried or afraid." Sima Niu didn't understand what this meant and asked, "Are you a gentleman if you are not sad or afraid?" ?

Confucius said: "A gentleman often introspects; So there is no guilt in my heart. What can I be sad and afraid of? " ?
