《三国志·吴书·诸葛滕二孙濮阳传》
不放过别人的过失，在细微的事情上相互指责，久而久之就会造成家家户户互相埋怨，整个国家也不会有德行操守完善无缺的人才了。 诸葛恪知道陆逊听了谗言而猜疑自己，故此多方阐述这个道理而盛赞它的深刻旨意。
夫不舍小过，纤微相责，久乃至于家户为怨，一国无复全行之士也。 恪知逊以此嫌己，故遂广其理而赞其旨也。
Not letting go of other people's mistakes and blaming each other over minor matters will eventually lead to mutual resentment among families, and there will be no one in the entire country who is perfect in virtue and conduct. Zhuge Ke knew that Lu Xun had listened to slander and suspected him, so he explained this principle in many ways and praised its profound meaning.
