《三国志·魏书·崔毛徐何邢鲍司马传》
毛玠对太祖说： 现在天下分崩离析，国君四处流离不在京都，百姓荒废本业，缺乏食物，四处流亡，公家没有能维持一年的储备，百姓没有安稳固定的想法，这样是很难长久坚持的。
玠语太祖曰： 今天下分崩，国主迁移，生民废业，饥馑流亡，公家无经岁之储，百姓无安固之志，难以持久。
Mao Jie said to the great ancestor: Today, the world is disintegrating, the sovereign has been displaced from the capital, the people have abandoned their trades, are without food, and are wandering everywhere, the state has no reserves to last a year, and the people have no settled thoughts, so it is hard to hold out for long.
