《容斋随笔·卷六·韩退之》
因为裴度写这封信时，名誉地位都还没有。信的最后写着： 昨日小弟来，是想能及时在功名上有所进取。我虽然名为 度 ，也不敢自视甚高。
考公作此书时，名位犹未达，其末云： 昨弟来，欲度及时干进，度昔岁取名，不敢自高。
Because when Pei Du wrote this letter, his reputation and status were not yet established. At the end of the letter, he wrote: "My little brother came yesterday, expecting to be able to advance my career in a timely manner. Although my name is Du, I do not dare to think highly of myself."
