《淮南子·主术训》
他喜欢那些熟悉的习性相近的人，即使是行为不正派，也装作不看见；而那些他所疏远、被看不起的人，即使是为他竭力效忠努力工作，也只当不知道。
所爱习亲近者，虽邪枉不正，不能见也；疏远卑贱者，竭力尽忠，不能知也。
He likes those familiar and similar people, even if they behave improperly, they pretend not to see; and those who he alienates and looks down upon, even if they work hard to serve him, only pretend not to know.
