《国语·晋语·箕郑对文公问》
这样一来，百姓了解国君的心，即使贫困也不害怕，富裕的拿出收藏的财物用来赈济，如同往自己家里送一样，那又怎么会穷困匮乏呢？ 
于是乎民知君心，贫而不惧，藏出如入，何匮之有？ 
If this is the case, the people will understand the heart of their ruler, and even if they are in poverty, they will not be afraid. The rich will take out their stored wealth and use it as relief, just as if they were sending it to their own houses; in that case, how could they become poor and impoverished?”
