| 《·》: | 此與彼同類2，世有彼而不自非也，墨者有此而罪非之，無也故焉，所謂內膠外閉與心毋空乎？ | |
This and that are the same, the world has that and do not oppose themselves. We Mohists have these and yet they blame and oppose us. There can be no other reason than that they are stopped up within and closed without; their heart-minds are all filled in! | | 《·》: | 子曰：「忠告而善道之，不可則止，無自辱焉。」 | | The Master said, "Faithfully admonish your friend, and skillfully lead him on. If you find him impracticable, stop. Do not disgrace yourself." | | 《·》: | 曰：「許子奚為不自織？」 | | Why does Xu not weave it himself? | | 《·》: | 老聃曰：「明王之治，功蓋天下而似不自己，化貸萬物而民弗恃，有莫舉名，使物自喜，立乎不測，而遊於無有者也。」 | | Lao Dan replied, 'In the governing of the intelligent kings, their services overspread all under the sky, but they did not seem to consider it as proceeding from themselves; their transforming influence reached to all things, but the people did not refer it to them with hope. No one could tell the name of their agency, but they made men and things be joyful in themselves. Where they took their stand could not be fathomed, and they found their enjoyment in (the realm of) nonentity.' | | 《·》: | 所謂誠其意者，毋自欺也，如惡惡臭，如好好色，此之謂自謙，故君子必慎其獨也！ | | What is meant by "making the thoughts sincere." is the allowing no self-deception, as when we hate a bad smell, and as when we love what is beautiful. This is called self-enjoyment. Therefore, the superior man must be watchful over himself when he is alone. | | 《》: | 鄭人有且置履者，先自度其足而置之其坐，至之市而忘操之，已得履，乃曰：「吾忘持度。」 | | 《·》: | 哀王立三月，弟叔襲殺哀王而自立，是為思王。 | | 《·》: | 魯君之使者至，顏闔自對之。 | | 《·》: | 聽讒自亂，聽諛自欺，近憝自惡，三不近也。 | | 《》: | 晏子為齊相，出，其御之妻從門閒而闚，其夫為相御，擁大蓋，策駟馬，意氣揚揚，甚自得也。 | | 《》: | 范蠡曰：「臣聞君子俟時，計不數謀，死不被疑，內不自欺。」 | | 《·》: | 晏子將出，命婦窺其夫為相御，擁大蓋，策駟馬，意氣洋洋，甚自得也。 |
