《抱朴子·内篇·论仙》
抱朴子回答说： 人要是丧失了听觉，那么震耳的的雷声也不能使他听到；丧失了视觉，那么日月星辰的光芒也不能让他看见，何况是磕碰的细小声音，天空中的细微景观呢？ 
抱朴子答曰： 夫聪之所去，则震雷不能使之闻，明之所弃，则三光不能使之见，岂輷磕之音细，而丽天之景微哉？
Hug-Master replied: If someone loses their hearing, then even thunder will not make them hear; if they lose their sight, then even the light of the sun, moon, and stars will not allow them to see—what's more, fine, colliding sounds, or tiny, heavenly images?
