《孔子家语·庙制》
孔子说： 自从天下有了君王，分封土地，建立国家，设立祖宗的宗庙，于是就有了亲疏、贵贱、多少的区分。
孔子曰： 天下有王，分地建国，设祖宗，乃为亲踈贵贱多少之数。
Confucius said: Since there were kings in the world, there have been the division of lands, the establishment of countries and the establishment of ancestral temples, and there were the divisions of intimate and distant, expensive and cheap, and many and few.
