《陈书·本纪·卷五》
去浮华尚质朴，确实值得追慕，奇异名贵的服装已经焚毁，穿上了黑色粗厚的丝锑，减省费用的制度，就从朕自身做起，风吹而草伏，希望以此来改变习俗。
斫雕为朴，庶几可慕，雉头之服既焚，弋绨之衣方袭，损撤之制，前自朕躬，草偃风行，冀以变俗。
To get rid of the extravagant and to value the plain, is indeed worthy of admiration. The strange and expensive clothes have been burned, and the black and thick silk has been worn. The system of reducing expenses starts from me. When the wind blows, the grass bends down. I hope to change the customs in this way.
