《荀子·不苟》
公正就耳聪目明，偏私就昏暗愚昧；端正谨慎就通达，欺诈虚伪就闭塞；真诚老实会产生神明，大言自夸会产生糊涂。
公生明，偏生暗，端悫生通，诈伪生塞，诚信生神，夸诞生惑。
Justice is clear and bright, bias is dark and ignorant; The upright and cautious will be well-informed, and the fraudulent and hypocritical will be closed; Sincerity and honesty will lead to God, and bragging will lead to confusion.
