《逸周书·卷七·官人解》
靠吃喝亲近人，用财物结交人，以利交往，有心贪取声誉，求得利益，依靠他人，叫做贪鄙者。内心无决断，表达不清楚，遮掩其不足，而谋事不止，叫做伪诈者。言辞多变，行为错乱，好恶无常，行事不实，叫做无诚者。缺乏智慧不能决大事，缺乏才能不能成大事，规划小事而不识大体，叫做华诞者。
言行亟变，从容克易，好恶无常，行身不笃，曰无诚者也。少知而不大决，少能而不大成，规小物而不知大伦，曰华诞者也。

Lacking wisdom to make major decisions, lacking talent to achieve great things, planning small things without understanding the big picture, is called being superficial and pedantic.
