《资治通鉴·齐纪·齐纪九》
江陵人向来害怕襄阳人，又寡不敌众，要收拾他们必定办不到，即使能制服了他们，最终也不会为朝廷所容忍。
江陵素畏襄阳人，又众寡不敌，取之必不可制；就能制之，岁寒不为朝廷所容。
The people of Jiangling have always been afraid of the people of Xiangyang, and they are outnumbered, so it will definitely not be possible to defeat them. Even if they could be defeated, the government would not tolerate it in the end.
