《商君书·更法》
我听说从偏僻小巷走出来的人喜欢少见多怪，学识浅陋的人多喜欢诡辩，愚昧的人所讥笑的事，正是聪明人所感到悲哀的事。
吾闻穷巷多怪，曲学多辩。愚者之笑，智者哀焉；狂夫之乐，贤者丧焉。
I have heard that people from remote rural areas like to make a fuss over trifles because they have seen so little, and people with little knowledge like to argue because they are ignorant. What the ignorant ridicule is what the intelligent grieve for.
