半藤末利子:
> 主人が亡くなる直前のことですが、突然「起きてる？」と声をかけられたのです。病状が悪化したのかと思って「どうしたの？」と聞いたら、「2500年前の思想家に墨子という人がいてね、あの時代にずっと戦争に反対し続けた人なんだ。すごい人だから、墨子をお読みなさい」って。それでまたスヤスヤと寝ちゃった。それが最期の言葉でした。

Here's another song that comes to mind while reading #MoZi, #墨子 sounds like BokuShi in Japanese, the same word for Protestant church ministers, not the word for Catholic priest.

> Suppose everybody in the world loves universally, loving others as one's self. Will there yet be any unfilial individual?..When every one regards other families as his own.. who will steal? When every one regards other persons as his own person, who will rob?.. there will not be any thieves or robbers. Will there be mutual disturbance.. and invasion among the states.. When every one regards the states of others as one's own, who will invade?

> The murder of one person is called unrighteous and incurs one death penalty.. the murder of ten persons will be ten times as unrighteous... a hundred persons will be a hundred times as unrighteous and there should be a hundred death penalties. All.. know that they should condemn these things.. But when it comes to the great unrighteousness of attacking states, they do not... On the contrary, they applaud it, calling it righteous.

君子之道也：贫则见廉，富则见义，生则见爱，死则见哀；四行者不可虚假反之身者也。藏于心者，无以竭爱，动于身者，无以竭恭，出于口者，无以竭驯。畅之四支，接之肌肤，华发隳颠，而犹弗舍者，其唯圣人乎！

墨子真是个有趣的人，挺想和他聊聊。墨家学说挺有意思，兼爱非攻不就是love & peace吗？可惜内部制度严苛，类似狂热宗教，而且钜子的综合实力一代不如一代，墨子→禽滑厘→孟胜→田襄子→腹黄享，最终没落。不是有江湖传说，最后一代钜子一直传到民国，抗战而消亡吗？也不知是真是假，我觉得有可能。
