70 道德经:
吾言甚易知,甚易行。天下莫能知,莫能行。言有宗,事有君。夫唯无知,是以不我知。知我者希,则我者贵。是以圣人被褐怀玉。
Dao De Jing:
(The difficulty of being (rightly) known)
My words are very easy to know, and very easy to practise; but there is no one in the world who is able to know and able to practise them.
There is an originating and all-comprehending (principle) in my words, and an authoritative law for the things (which I enforce). It is because they do not know these, that men do not know me.
They who know me are few, and I am on that account (the more) to be prized. It is thus that the sage wears (a poor garb of) hair cloth, while he carries his (signet of) jade in his bosom.

1 知难:
章吾言甚易知,甚易行。老子言:吾所言省而易知,约而易行。天下莫能知,莫能行。人恶柔弱,好刚强也。言有宗,事有君。我所言有宗祖根本,事有君臣上下,世人不知者,非我之无德,心与我之反也。夫唯无知,是以不我知。夫唯世人之无知者,是我德之暗,不见于外,穷微极妙,故无知也。知我者希,则我者贵。希,少也。唯达道者乃能知我,故为贵也。是以圣人被褐怀玉。被褐者薄外,怀玉者厚内,匿宝藏德,不以示人也。

12 缪称训:
今夫夜有求,与瞽师并,东方开,斯照矣。动而有益,则损随之。故《》曰:“剥之不可遂尽也。故受之以复。”积薄为厚,积卑为高,故君子日孳孳以成辉,小人日怏怏以至辱。其消息也,离朱弗能见也。文王闻善如不及,宿不善如不祥。非为日不足也,其忧寻推之也。故《》曰:“周虽旧邦,其命维新。”怀情抱质,天弗能杀,地弗能霾也。声扬天地之间,配日月之光,甘乐之者也。苟向善,虽过无怨;苟不向善,虽忠来患。故怨人不如自怨,求诸人不如求诸己得也。声自召也,貌自示也,名自命也,文自官也,无非己者。操锐以刺,操刃以击,何怨乎人?故管子文锦也,虽丑登庙;子产练染也,美而不尊。虚而能满,淡而有味,被褐怀玉者。故两心不可以得一人,一心可以得百人。男子树兰,美而不芳,继子得食,肥而不泽,情不相与往来也。

5 吴失:
“然高概远量,被褐怀玉,守静洁志,无欲于物,藏路渊洿,得意遗世,非礼不动,非时不见,困而无闷,穷而不悔,乐天任命,混一荣辱,进无悦色,退无戚容者,固有伏死乎雍瓦牖,安肯沽炫以进趋,揭其不赀之宝,以竞燕石之售哉!孔墨之道,昔曾不行,孟轲扬雄,亦居困否,有德无时,有自来耳。世无离朱,皂白混焉。时乏管青,骐蹇糅焉。砾积于金匮,瑾瑶委乎沟洫,匠石缅而遐沦,梓豫忽而莫识,已矣,悲夫!我生不辰,弗先弗后,将见吴土之化为晋哉,南民之变成北隶也。”言犹在耳,而孙氏舆榇。
