《宋史·列传·卷一百九十六》
陛下何不就心的不安而寻求不安的道理，陛下面对天地，事奉太母，接见群臣，亲自讲读，都应该遇事情反求于自己，这样就会建立根本而没有什么事情不可以做的了。 他又说： 现在学校教学的目的不明确，风俗轻浮浅薄，使立在朝廷中的没有犯颜敢谏的忠臣，而碰到危难时又没有敢仗义死节的勇士。
陛下盍即不安而求之，对天地，事太母，见群臣，亲讲读，皆随事反求，则大本立而无事不可为矣。 又论： 讲学不明，风俗浮浅，立朝无犯颜敢谏之忠，临难无仗节死义之勇。
Your Majesty why not search for the reason of the unhappiness based on the unhappiness, your Majesty facing the heaven and earth, serving your empress dowager, meeting with your subjects, lecturing in person, all things should seek the reason from yourself, in this way, you will establish the foundation and nothing will be impossible. He also said: "now the purpose of school is not clear, the habits are frivolous and shallow, making those in the court without the loyal officials who dare to speak the truth, and when meeting with danger, there are no warriors who dare to fight to the death."
