About This Quote

An old Chinese saying goes, “Those who do not think about the future cannot have one.” This saying is often attributed to Confucius, but there is no record of it in his work. The earliest reference to the quote is in a biography of Sun Tzu written in 1113, nearly two hundred years after Confucius’ death.
