《墨子·10章 尚贤(下)》
墨子说：天下的王公大人都希望自己的国家富足，人民众多，政治安定。但却不知道以尚贤作为对国家百姓为政的原则。
子墨子言曰：天下之王公大人皆欲其国家之富也，人民之众也，刑法之治也。
Mozi said: The lords of the world all hope that their country will be rich, populous, and politically stable. However, they do not know how to use the principle of respecting the virtuous as the principle of governing the people of the country.
