《韩非子·难三》
明君不凭个人心愿提拔臣子，臣子自会争相进用；不自以为谁是贤人，立功的人自会随之而来。
明君不自举臣，臣相进也；不自贤，功自徇也。
The wise ruler does not promote subjects based on his own preferences; ministers will compete with each other to use their talents. The ruler does not think of himself as virtuous; those who have made contributions will follow him.
