[Excerpt from the Analects of Confucius]
When Confucius was traveling to Wei, Ran Yu drove him.
Confucius observed, "What a dense population!"
Ran Yu said, "The people having grown so numerous, what next should be done for them?"
"Enrich them," was the reply.
"And when one has enriched them, what next should be done?"
Confucius said, "Educate them."
