《庄子·外篇·在宥》
听任天下自在地发展，是因为担忧人们超越了原本的真性；宽容不迫各得其所，是因为担忧人们改变了自然的常态。天下人不超越原本的真性，不改变自然的常态，哪里用得着治理天下呢！
在之也者，恐天下之淫其性也；宥之也者，恐天下之迁其德也。天下不淫其性，不迁其德，有治天下者哉？
We let nature run its course because we are worried about people straying from their original true nature; we are tolerant and forgiving because we are concerned that people might change the way things are meant to be. When people do not stray from their original true nature and do not change the way things are meant to be, why would there be a need to govern the world?
