message: The line beginning
大學之道在明明德
da xue zhi dao zai ming ming de...
is attributed to Mencius. No way.
The author of the work is unknown. Most modern scholars believe, on the basis of textual evidence, that it was written after Mencius, maybe as late as the opening years of the Han dynasty. The traditional account is that it came after Confucius but before Mencius.
The works of Mencius are collected in the book by that name. The quoted passage is not found therein.P0M (talk) 06:45, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  false attribution 

message: The article currently states that "实事求是" was "coined" by Mao Zedong.
This is false.
The phrase dates back to "the book of Han", and interest in it revived in various periods.  Mao's generation was directly influenced by the 19th century "Han Learning Movement", that basically regarded the Ming and Song dynasties as problematic, and revived bits and pieces selected from Han literature as representing the highest ideals of Chinese civilization (obviously, a culturally complex process with a fair bit of propaganda invovled, even at that stage).
If you google the phrase, you'll find many sources stating that it originates in the Han dynasty; however, I do not have any sources that it suitable to be cited in a wikipedia article.  e.g., http://www.edbchinese.hk/trad/en/topic03a.htm (here it appears in traditional characters, 實事求是).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jep Tong (talk • contribs) 15:43, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Error, 实事求是 was not coined by Mao 

message: 天下為公 is a quotation from the ancient author 墨子 (this is even mentioned within the Wikipedia article on 墨子!).
Although modern interest in the phrase was (perhaps) increased when Sun Yat-Sen employed it as a quotation, this page should not suggest that it is a quotation from Sun Yat-sen.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jep Tong (talk • contribs) 15:50, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
