Confucius say

The extension of knowledge is by the investigation of things.
Things being investigated, the knowledge of them became complete.
Knowledge being complete, the thoughts were sincere.
The thoughts being sincere, the hearts were made upright.
The hearts being upright, the person was cultivated.
The person being cultivated, families were regulated.
Families being regulated, the States were rightly governed.
The States being rightly governed, the whole kingdom was made tranquil and happy.
