	Yang Huo:	The Master, having come to Wu Cheng, heard there the sound of stringed instruments and singing. Well pleased and smiling, he said, "Why use an ox knife to kill a fowl?" Zi You replied, "Formerly, Master, I heard you say, 'When the man of high station is well instructed, he loves men; when the man of low station is well instructed, he is easily ruled.'" The Master said, "My disciples, Yan's words are right. What I said was only in sport."

令長:

《論語》曰：子之武城聞弦歌之聲，子游為武城宰。夫子莞爾而笑曰：「割雞焉用牛刀。」言治小何須用大道。子游對曰：「昔者偃也，聞諸夫子曰：君子學道則愛人，小人學道則易使也。」道，禮樂也。樂以和人，人和則易使。子曰：「二三子，謂從行者。偃之言是也，前言戲之耳。」戲以治小用大道也。
又曰：子夏為莒父宰，問政，子曰：「無欲速，無見小利，欲速則不達，見小利則大事不成。」
又曰：子游為武城宰，子曰：「女得人焉耳乎？」曰：「有澹臺滅明者，行不由徑，非公事，未嘗至於偃之室也。」言澹臺滅明公且方也。
