<< review queue entry 32109 >> Hope you guys don't think I'm suggesting entries that duplicate each other. 『人誰無過，過而能改，善莫大焉』is the original phrase from 左傳 (see link below). Now, as everyone knows, that's a lot to say, so most people will usually just pick one of these individual four-character phrases as best suits the situation. However, sometimes, 『過而能改，善莫大焉』 is also said as a whole. This is why I thought to suggest the addition of all four of these entries. It might be a good idea to add 『人誰無過，過而能改，善莫大焉』 as an entry as well, but it's rather long, so I'll leave it to the editors to deliberate. http://www.hudong.com/wiki/%E8%BF%87%E8%80%8C%E8%83%BD%E6 %94%B9 --yyz |
