有包容，才能有大成就。“有容”即器量大，能包容一切；“大”指气魄、事业伟大。“有容”是一种道德修养，更是一种生存智慧。它是在承认并尊重个体及社会差异基础上调处自我与他人关系、寻求社会和谐的一种道德自觉，但又不是故意纵容或作无原则的妥协。“有容乃大”提醒人们立身行事尤其是为官理政，要心胸开阔，善于听取各种意见，宽和对待不同事物，就像大海接纳无数江河细流一样，这样才能养成伟大的品格，成就伟大的事业。其义与“厚德载物”相通。
Abroad mind achieves greatness. You⁃rong (有容） means that one has the capac⁃ity to accommodate others. Da （大） refers to great courage and an important cause. Yourong is a moral standard, and more importantly, contains wisdom for survival.
It is a conscious act of morality in pursuit of social harmony by managing and regulating relations between oneself and others on
the basis of recognizingand respecting individual and social differences, without resorting to deliberate selfabnegation or
making unprincipled compromise. The term teaches people how to conduct themselves, particularly officials in exercising their
administrative powers. That is, they should have a broad mind, open to different views and different things, like the sea
accepting numerous rivers flowing into it. This is the way to cultivate great character and important achievements. Its meaning
is similar to the term houdezaiwu （厚德载物have ample virtue and carry all things）.

无欲则刚/wúyù-zégāng/People with No Covetous Desires Stand Upright.
人没有非分的贪欲，就能做到刚正凛然。“欲”指各种私欲、贪欲；“刚”即刚正公道、正直有力。“无欲”并不是绝对禁止人们有“欲”，而是提倡克制自己的私欲、贪欲。“无欲则刚”讲的是立身处事尤其是执政做官的基本道理：一个人面对来自各方的种种诱惑，应该大公无私、端正品行、淡泊守志，不要有非分的贪图，这样就能一身正气，无所畏惧，就像高高的峭壁一样，挺立于天地之间，坚不可摧。
Peoplewith no covetous desires stand upright and maintain integrity. Yu（欲） refers to all sorts of selfish and covetous desires.Gang （刚）means fairness,justice,integrity, and forcefulness. Wuyu（无欲）does not mean that people should not have any desires,but rather, people should not harbor any selfish or covetous desires.
The term tells us a basic princi⁃ple for people to follow in conducting themselves, and especially for officials in handling
office affairs, that is, no temptations should ever sway anyone. One must always conduct oneself properly without seeking to
gratify personal interests; one must always seek compliance without seeking fame or wealth; and one must never harbor any greed.
This is the way for one to stand upright, firm, and fearless. Like towering cliffs, one may stand tall and indestructible.
