《论衡·卷九·问孔篇》
如果孔子像把侄女嫁给南容时说的那样： 国家有道的时候，他能做官；国家无道的时候，能免遭刑罚。 这就是全面称赞了。
诚似妻南容云，国有道不废，国无道免於刑戮，具称之矣。
If Confucius was like when he married his niece to Nan Rong, when he said: When the state is governed according to the Way, he can hold office; when the state is not governed according to the Way, he can avoid punishment. This would be a comprehensive praise.
