《荀子·君道》
所以天子不用察看就能发现问题，不用打听就能明白真相，不用考虑就能知道事理，不用动手就能功成业就，岿然不动地独自坐着而天下人顺从他就像长在一个身体上一样、就像四肢顺从思想的支配一样，这就是最好的政治原则的最大效验。《诗》云： 温柔谦恭的人们，是以道德为根本。 
故天子不视而见，不听而聪，不虑而知，不动而功，块然独坐而天下从之如一体，如四胑之从心：夫是之谓大形。诗曰： 温温恭人，维德之基。 
Therefore, the emperor does not need to observe to discover problems, does not need to inquire to understand the truth, does not need to consider to know the truth, does not need to do anything to achieve success, sitting alone without moving, and the world obeys him as if growing on one body, as if Limbs obey the dictates of the mind, this is the greatest effect of the best political principles. The Book of Songs says: Gentle and humble people are based on morality.
