《宋史·列传·卷二百零三》
刘恕特别不信浮屠之说，认为那是子虚乌有，他说 ：人们居家旅行，一物不可缺少。人死之后，身外之物可以完全抛弃了，有什么必要带一些随葬品呢？ 刘恕好揭人之短，他自己也知道。每每自讼平生有二十失、十八蔽，并曾做文以自警，但就是始终改不掉这个习惯。
尤不信浮屠说，以为必无是事，曰： 人如居逆旅，一物不可乏，去则尽弃之矣，岂得赍以自随哉？ 好攻人之恶，每自讼平生有二十失、十八蔽，作文以自警，亦终不能改也。
Liu Shu was particularly skeptical of Buddhist teachings, believing that they were unfounded. He said: When people live at home or travel, there is not a single thing that they cannot do without. After people die, all the things outside their bodies can be completely discarded, why is it necessary to bring some funerary objects? Liu Shu liked to expose people's shortcomings, and he knew it himself. He often lamented that he had twenty faults and eighteen shortcomings in his life, and wrote an article to warn himself, but he could never change this habit.
