《菜根谭·概论》
功绩和过错不能有丁点混淆，如果混淆了，就会使人产生懒惰、不思进取之心；恩惠和仇恨不能分得太清楚，分得太清楚就会使人离心离德，产生背叛之心。
功过不宜少混，混则人怀惰隳之心；恩仇不可太明，明则人起携贰之志。
There should be no confusion between merits and faults. If they are mixed up, it will make people lazy and unmotivated. Favor and hatred should not be too clearly divided, If they are too clearly divided, it will make people alienated and rebellious.
