《菜根谭·评议》
所以，像楚怀王贪图商於之地，石崇贪恋金谷秀园，都因一时之显耀而遭杀戮；颜回乐于一箪食一瓢饮，甘于穿破旧衣服，最终却享得千载美名。
故贪商旅而恋金谷者，竟被一时之显戮；乐箪瓢而甘敝缊者，终享千载之令名。
Therefore, like King Huai of Chu coveting the land of Shangyu and Shi Chong coveting the Jin Gu Xiuyuan, they were both killed because of their momentary glory; Yan Hui was happy with a bowl of food and a scoop of drink, and was content to wear ragged clothes, but in the end he enjoyed a thousand years of fame.
