学行卷第一 - Learning and Practice

English translation: Jeffrey S. Bullock [?] Library Resources
4 学行卷第... :
或曰:“学无益也,如质何?”曰:“未之思矣。夫有刀者礲诸,有玉者错诸,不礲不错,焉攸用?礲而错诸,质在其中矣。否则辍。”
Learning and Practice:...:
Someone said: Study has no benefits, what can it do for one's zhi?
Yangzi said: You have not yet thought about it. If you have a knife, you sharpen it; if you have jade, you polish it. If you do not sharpen and polish them, how are they useful? Sharpening and polishing, their zhi lies in these; if this was not the case, then you might as well stop.
