Confucius
Confucius
He was a thinker, political figure, educator, and founder of the Ru School of Chinese thought. Known to the Chinese as Master Kong and to the rest of the world as Confucius, he created a philosophy based on virtue and believed in honesty, respect, sincerity.

Confucius taught that it was not the satisfaction of the senses in the present moment that would bring true happiness, but well-planned actions and the helping of fellow man which mattered most.
(551-479 BCE)
