《资治通鉴·汉纪·汉纪二十七》
从前邓通、韩嫣骄横显贵没有限度，逸乐无厌，小人不能克制情欲，终于犯下大罪，把国家搞乱，使自己丧生，不能最终保全富贵。正所谓 爱他，却恰恰足以害他 。
往者宠臣邓通、韩嫣，骄贵失度，逸豫无厌，小人不胜情欲，卒陷罪辜，乱国亡躯，不终其禄，所谓 爱之适足以害之 者也！
In the past, Deng Tong and Han Yan were arrogant and extravagant without any limits, indulging in pleasure without restraint. The villains could not control their desires, and finally committed serious crimes, causing chaos in the country and leading to their own deaths. They could not ultimately preserve their wealth and power. As the saying goes, you love someone, but it is precisely enough to harm them.
