27 盡心上:
孟子曰:「飢者甘食,渴者甘飲,是未得飲食之正也,飢渴害之也。豈惟口腹有飢渴之害?人心亦皆有害。人能無以飢渴之害為心害,則不及人不為憂矣。」
Jin Xin I:
Mencius said, 'The hungry think any food sweet, and the thirsty think the same of any drink, and thus they do not get the right taste of what they eat and drink. The hunger and thirst, in fact, injure their palate. And is it only the mouth and belly which are injured by hunger and thirst? Men's minds are also injured by them. If a man can prevent the evils of hunger and thirst from being any evils to his mind, he need not have any sorrow about not being equal to other men.'
