《三国志·魏书·崔毛徐何邢鲍司马传》
他追求以节俭作为他人表率，因此天下的士人没有不以清廉节义勉励自己的，即使是显贵受宠信的臣子，车马服饰也不敢超越限度。
务以俭率人，由是天下之士莫不以廉节自励，虽贵宠之臣，舆服不敢过度。
He sought to lead others by example through thriftiness, as a result, all the gentlemen in the world encouraged themselves to be upright and honest, and even the ministers who were prominent and in favour did not dare to exceed the limits in their carriages, horses, clothes and hats.
