《贞观政要·卷十·论慎终》
所以我不敢自恃天下安定就掉以轻心，而是心怀忧患，经常用历史上的危亡来警戒自己，以激励自己将治国政策贯彻到底。 
朕所以不敢恃天下之安，每思危亡以自戒惧，用保其终。 
"So, I do not dare to grow careless because of the stability of the nation. Instead, I am concerned about potential dangers and often use historical dangers to warn myself, inspiring myself to follow my national policies through to the end."
