《新唐书·列传·卷二十八》
隋文帝吸取北周灭亡的教训，凭借微弱的资质，虽然对老百姓没做大好事，但是布施恩惠，上下臣民安定有靠。
文帝因周衰，藉女资，虽无大功于人，然布德行惠，上下安赖。
Emperor Wen of Sui absorbed the lessons of the fall of Northern Zhou. Although he was not someone of great talent, he showed mercy to the people. He used rewards to appease the people both high and low, helping to secure their support.
