《淮南子·汜论训》
所以识别评判人的方法是：对地位等贵者是观察他怎样兴办事情的，对富有者是观察他怎样施害人家的，对穷困者是观察他不受什么，对卑贱者是观察他不愿意做什么，对贫穷者是观察他不拿取他人的什么。
故论人之道，贵则观其所举，富则观其所施，穷则观其所不受，贱则观其所不为，贫则观其所不取。
So the way to judge people is: for those of high status, observe how they handle things, for the rich observe how they treat others, for the poor observe what they do not take, for the low observe what they do not want to do, for the poor observe what they do not take from others.
