《晋书·志·第一章》
葛洪听说了讥笑他说： 如果星宿不附着显现在天上，天就没什么用处，便可以说没有，何必又说有而且不动呢？ 
葛洪闻而讥之曰： 苟辰宿不丽于天，天为无用，便可言无，何必复云有之而不动乎？ 
Ge Hong heard of these criticisms and laughed at his remarks: If the stars are not attached and obvious in the sky, then the sky would be useless, and one might as well say they do not exist, why say they exist and do not move?
