《淮南子·原道训》
那井中小鱼，无法与它谈论大海，是由于它受环境的局限；生活在夏季的虫，无法与它谈论寒冬，是因为它受季节的限制；寡闻少见的书生，无法与他谈论大道，是由于他受习俗、教义的束缚。
夫井鱼不可与语大，拘于隘也；夏虫不可与语寒，笃于时也；曲士不可与语至道，拘于俗，束于教也。
The small fish in the well cannot talk about the ocean because it is limited by the environment; the insect living in the summer cannot talk about the cold winter because it is restricted by the season; the bookworm with little knowledge cannot talk about the great way because he is bound by customs and doctrines.
