生于中国山东邹城。中国古代思想家、教育家。儒家代表人物。著有《孟子》一书。其思想与孔子思想合称为孔孟之道。 “孟母三迁”、“孟母断织”等故事，成为千古美谈，是后世母教之典范。

Mencius (372-289 BC), born in Zoucheng, Shandong, China, was a thinker and educator, and an exponent of Confucianism. His doings and sayings are recorded in the book Mencius. The Confucian thoughts of Confucius and Mencius are often collectively referred to as the Doctrines of Confucius and Mencius. There are well-known stories about Mencius’ mother who moved house three times before she found the right neighborhood -- next to a school -- to raise her son, and who cut half-woven cloth to tell her son that one cannot stop a task midway. Mencius’ mother is still a model of maternity in China today.
