《史记·七十列传·魏公子列传》
朱亥笑着说： 我只是个市场上击刀杀生的屠夫，可是公子竟多次登门问候我，我之所以不回拜答谢您，是因为我认为小礼小节没什么用处。
硃亥笑曰： 臣乃市井鼓刀屠者，而公子亲数存之，所以不报谢者，以为小礼无所用。
Zhu Hai laughed and said:  I'm just a butcher who kills pigs in the market. But my prince, you've come to visit me several times. The reason I didn't return the visit was because I thought those small gestures were meaningless.
