《资治通鉴·魏纪·魏纪九》
如果德操不足以同唐尧、虞舜相配，贤明不足以同周公相比，真实不能象冰炭一样，那么尽管出具重赏，忠心直谏之言也不会听到。 
若德不足以配唐、虞，明不足以并周公，实不可以同冰炭，是悬重赏，忠谏之言未可致也。 
If ones virtue is not adequate to match Tangyao and Yushun, and ones wisdom is not adequate to match the Duke of Zhou, and ones realness is not like ice or coal, then even if one offers generous rewards, no loyal and upright words will be heard.
