《资治通鉴·齐纪·齐纪三》
他病得很厉害时，立下遗嘱，命令他的几个儿子说： 才能，有优劣好坏之分；官位，有亨通受阻之分；运气，有贫穷高足之分，这是自然而然的道理，你们所处的位置还不足以让你们仗势欺人。 
疾笃，遗令诸子曰： 才有优劣，位有通塞，运有贫富，此自然之理，无足以相陵侮也。 
When he was seriously ill, he made a will and ordered his sons to say: talents have advantages and disadvantages; official positions have smooth and blocked ones; luck has rich and poor ones, which is a natural course of things. Your current positions are not enough for you to bully others.
