《新唐书·列传·卷五十一》
若不这样，从小处说，只求苟得，进而只知谋私；从大处说，以义做交易，进而结为朋党。
不如此，则小者得于苟求，一变而至阿私；大者许以分义，再变而成朋党矣。
If not, then on a small scale, one would only seek to survive, and then one would only know how to seek private gain. On a large scale, one would make transactions based on righteousness, and then one would form cliques.
