《资治通鉴·晋纪·晋纪三十八》
当初，刘毅的叔父刘镇之在京口闲居，不应朝廷的征召，常常对刘毅和刘藩说： 凭你们的才能天赋，足可以实现自己的志向，干一番大事业，但是恐怕不会得势太长时间。
初，毅季父镇之闲居京口，不应辟召，常谓毅及籓曰： 汝辈才器，足以得志，但恐不久耳。
At first, Liu Yi's uncle Liu Zhenzhi lived at Jingkou as a hermit. He did not answer the court's summons, and he often told Liu Yi and Liu Fan: "With your talents and abilities, you'll be able to fulfill your ambition and achieve something great. But I'm afraid you will not have it for long."
