"Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart." What famous "paragon of Chinese sages" was so profound, China built a religion around him? Name that politician of the Spring and Autumn period.

Raised in poverty, Confucius rose in stature and went into politics around 500 BC. Early recognition of his philosophical gifts drove him into exile, but he later returned, stronger than ever. Chinese culture – and the government – embraced his teachings, particularly the concepts of morality, virtue, and community, which are now central to Chinese thought.
