《水经注·卷十五》
阮嗣宗心有所感，就撰写了《大人先生论》，说我不知道那人是谁。他既神游自得，不与人交往，连阮籍也不能动摇他超拔绝俗的情操，不知道还有谁能得知他的姓名。
阮嗣宗感之，著《大人先生论》，言吾不知其人，既神游自得，不与物交。阮氏尚不能动其英操，复不识何人而能得其姓名。
Ruan Sizong had some ideas, so he wrote <On the Noble Gentleman>, saying I do not know who he is. Since he enjoys his divine presence and does not interact with others, even Ruan Ji cannot shake his extraordinary sentiment, so I wonder who could know his name.
