儒家 -> 孟子 -> 梁惠王下 -> 16.1

孟子見齊宣王曰：Mencius, having an interview with the king Xuan of Qi, said to him,
「為巨室， 'If you are going to build a large mansion,
則必使工師求大木。 you will surely cause the Master of the workmen to look out for large trees,
工師得大木。 and when he has found such large trees,
則王喜， you will be glad,
以為能勝其任也。 thinking that they will answer for the intended object.
匠人斵而小之， Should the workmen hew them so as to make them too small,
則王怒， then your Majesty will be angry,
以為不勝其任矣。 thinking that they will not answer for the purpose.
夫人幼而學之，Now, a man spends his youth in learning the principles of right government,
壯而欲行之。and, being grown up to vigour, he wishes to put them in practice;
王曰『姑舍女所學而從我』，if your Majesty says to him, "For the present put aside what you have learned, and follow me,"
則何如？ what shall we say?
今有璞玉於此，Here now you have a gem unwrought, in the stone.
雖萬鎰，Although it may be worth 240,000 taels,
必使玉人彫琢之。 you will surely employ a lapidary to cut and polish it.
至於治國家， But when you come to the government of the State,
則曰『姑舍女所學而從我』，then you say, "For the present put aside what you have learned, and follow me."
則何以異於教玉人彫琢玉哉？」 How is it that you herein act so differently from your conduct in calling in the lapidary to cut the gem?'
