    Mencius emphasizes that all people have the inherent capacity for goodness and virtue. He argues that this innate moral potential is like sprouts that can grow and develop under the right conditions, such as proper education and cultivation of one's moral character. Mencius believes that exemplary individuals who fully realize their innate moral potential become "Great Men." These Great Men serve as moral paragons and leaders who can inspire and guide others toward moral excellence and societal harmony. Mencius' teachings highlight the importance of nurturing one's moral nature and the potential for all individuals to become virtuous leaders and role models in society.
