晋灵公造九层台,费用千亿,谓左右曰:“敢有谏者斩!”孙息乃谏曰:“臣能累十三博棊,加九鸡子其上。”公曰:“吾少学,未尝见也,子为寡人作之。”孙息即以棊子置其下,加九鸡子其上。左右慑惧。灵公扶伏,气息不续。公曰:“危哉,危哉!”孙息曰:“臣谓是不危也,复有危此者。”公曰:“愿见之。”孙息曰:“九层之台,三年不成,男不得耕,女不得织,国用空虚,户口减少,吏民叛亡,邻国谋议,将兴兵。社稷一灭,君何所望?”灵公曰:“寡人之过,乃至于此。”即坏九层之台。《类聚》卷二四页四三六

64 道德经:
其安易持,其未兆易谋。其脆易泮,其微易散。为之于未有,治之于未乱。合抱之木,生于毫末;九层之台,起于累土;千里之行,始于足下。为者败之,执者失之。是以圣人无为故无败;无执故无失。民之从事,常于几成而败之。慎终如始,则无败事,是以圣人欲不欲,不贵难得之货;学不学,复衆人之所过,以辅万物之自然,而不敢为。
Dao De Jing:
(Guarding the minute)
That which is at rest is easily kept hold of; before a thing has given indications of its presence, it is easy to take measures against it; that which is brittle is easily broken; that which is very small is easily dispersed. Action should be taken before a thing has made its appearance; order should be secured before disorder has begun.
The tree which fills the arms grew from the tiniest sprout; the tower of nine storeys rose from a (small) heap of earth; the journey of a thousand li commenced with a single step.
He who acts (with an ulterior purpose) does harm; he who takes hold of a thing (in the same way) loses his hold. The sage does not act (so), and therefore does no harm; he does not lay hold (so), and therefore does not lose his bold. (But) people in their conduct of affairs are constantly ruining them when they are on the eve of success. If they were careful at the end, as (they should be) at the beginning, they would not so ruin them.
Therefore the sage desires what (other men) do not desire, and does not prize things difficult to get; he learns what (other men) do not learn, and turns back to what the multitude of men have passed by. Thus he helps the natural development of all things, and does not dare to act (with an ulterior purpose of his own).

20 德经:
其安易持,治身,治国,安静者易守持也。其未兆易谋,情欲祸患,未有形兆时,易谋正。其脃易破,祸乱未动于朝,情欲未见于色,如脆弱易破除也。其微易散,其未彰著,微小,易散去也。为之于未有,欲有所为,当以未有萌芽之时,塞其端也。治之于未乱,治身,治国于未乱之时,当豫闭其门也。合抱之木,生于毫末,从小成大也。九层之台,起于累土,从卑至高。千里之行,始于足下,从近至远。为者败之,有为于事,废于自然。执者失之,执利遇患,坚持不得,推让反还。圣人无为故无败,圣人不为华文,不为利色,故无败坏也。民之从事,常于几成而败之,从,为也。民人为事,常于其功德几成,而贪位好名,奢泰盈满,而败之也。慎终如始,则无败事,终当如始,不当懈怠。是以圣人欲不欲,圣人欲人所不欲,人欲文饰,圣人欲质朴,人欲于色,圣人欲于德。不贵难得之货,圣人不贱石而贵玉也。学不学,圣人学人所不能学,人学智诈,圣人学自然,人学治世,圣人学治身。复衆人之所过,衆人学问反,过本为末,过实为华,复之者,使反本。以辅万物之自然,教人反本实者,欲以辅万物自然之性也。而不敢为焉。圣人动作因循,不敢有所造为,恐远本。

11 谏:
《说苑》曰:楚庄王筑层台,延石千重,延壤百里,谏者七十二人皆死矣。有诸御已入谏庄王曰:昔虞不用宫之奇,而晋并之,曹不用僖负羁,而宋并之,吴不用子胥,而越并之,桀煞关龙逢,而汤得之,纣煞比干,而武王得之,遂趍出。王遽追之曰:吾用子之谏,先日说寡人者,不足动寡人之心,故皆至死,明日出令,有能入谏者,吾与为兄弟,废层台,罢民。
又曰:晏子复于景公曰:朝居严乎。公曰:朝居严则曷害于治国家哉。晏子对曰:朝居严则下无言,下无言则上无闻矣。下无言则谓之喑,上无闻则谓之聋,聋喑则非害治国家如何,且合升斗之谷,以满仓廪,泰山之高,非一石也。累卑然后高也。夫治天下者,非用一士之言也。
又曰:楚庄王立,三年不听朝。令于国曰:寡人恶为人臣谏其君者,今寡人有国家,立社稷,有谏即死无赦。苏纵曰:处君之高爵,食君之厚禄,爱死而不谏,则非忠臣也。乃谏庄王,立锺鼓之闲,王左伏杨姬。右拥成姬曰:吾锺鼓不暇,何谏之听。纵曰:臣闻之,好乐者迷,荆国亡无日矣。王曰:善,左执纵手,右抽佩刀,刎锺鼓之悬,明日授纵为相。
又曰:晋●公造九层台,费用千亿。谓左右曰:敢有谏者斩。孙息乃谏曰:臣能累十三博棋,加九鸡子其上。公曰:吾少学,未尝见也。子为寡人作之,孙息即以棋子置其下,加九鸡子其上,左右慑惧,●公扶伏,气息不续。公曰:危哉危哉。孙息曰:臣谓是不危也。复有危此者。公曰:愿见之。孙息曰:九层之台,三年不成,男不得耕,女不得织,国用空虚,户口减少,吏民叛亡,邻国谋议将兴兵,社稷一灭,君何所望。●公曰:寡人之过,乃至于此,即坏九层之台。
