《梁书·列传·卷五十》
有时进行教育，使不求上进的懒惰之人奋进，有时谈论命运以揭示人们的内心世界。 积善之家，必有余庆 的说法，是进行教育； 凤鸟不至 ，未遇圣君的慨叹，是谈论命运。
或立教以进庸惰，或言命以穷性灵。积善余庆，立教也；凤鸟不至，言命也。
Sometimes they educate, so that the lazy and unprogressive people can make progress, and sometimes they talk about fate to reveal people's inner world. The saying of "the family of good deeds will have surplus joy" is to educate; the sigh of "the phoenix will not arrive, and the saintly monarch will not be met" is to talk about fate.
