道家 -> 莊子 -> 雜篇 -> 盜跖 -> 1.6

盜跖大怒曰：「丘來前！'Come forward, Qiu,' said Dao Zhi, greatly enraged.
夫可規以利而可諫以言者，皆愚陋恆民之謂耳。Those who can be persuaded by considerations of gain, and to whom remonstrances may be addressed with success, are all ignorant, low, and ordinary people.
今長大美好，人見而悅之者，此吾父母之遺德也。That I am tall and large, elegant and handsome, so that all who see me are pleased with me - this is an effect of the body left me by my parents.
丘雖不吾譽，吾獨不自知邪？Though you were not to praise me for it, do I not know it myself?
且吾聞之：『好面譽人者，亦好背而毀之。』And I have heard that he who likes to praise men to their face will also like to speak ill of them behind their back.
今丘告我以大城眾民，是欲規我以利而恆民畜我也，安可久長也？And when you tell me of a great wall and a multitudinous people, this is to try to persuade me by considerations of gain, and to cocker me as one of the ordinary people.
城之大者，莫大乎天下矣。But how could such advantages last for long?
堯、舜有天下，子孫無置錐之地，湯、武立為天子而後世絕滅，非以其利大故邪？Of all great cities there is none so great as the whole kingdom, which was possessed by Yao and Shun, while their descendants (now) have not so much territory as would admit an awl.
Tang and Wu were both set up as the Sons of Heaven, but in after ages (their posterity) were cut off and extinguished - was not this because the gain of their position was so great a prize?
