桓公謂管子曰：「今子教寡人法天合德，合德長久。合德而兼覆之，則萬物受命。象地無親，無親安固。無親而兼載之，則諸生皆殖。參於日月，無私葆光。無私而兼照之，則美惡不隱。然則君子之爲身，無好無惡，然已乎？」管子對曰：「不然。夫學者所以自化，所以自撫。故君子惡稱人之惡，惡不忠而怨妬，惡不公議而名當稱，惡不位下而位上，惡不親外而內放。此五者，君子之所恐行，而小人之所以亡，況人君乎！」

第66篇版法解·第17则

若「俟之」云者，則尚未能真知天命之所在，猶有所俟者也，故曰「所以立命」。立者「創立」之「立」，如「立德」、「立言」、「立功」、「立名」之類。凡言立者，皆是昔未嘗有而今始建立之謂，孔子所謂「不知命，無以為君子」者也。故曰：「此困知、勉行，學者之事也。」 今以「盡心、知性、知天」為「格物、致知」，使初學之士尚未能不貳其心者，而遽責之以聖人生知、安行之事，如捕風捉影，茫然莫知所措其心，幾何而不至於「率天下而路」也？今世致知、格物之弊亦居然可見矣。吾子所謂「務外遺內，博而寡要」者，無乃亦是過歟？此學問最緊要處，於此而差，將無往而不差矣。此鄙人之所以冒天下之非笑，忘其身之陷於罪戮，呶呶其言，其不容已者也。

卷中·第134条

至於始皇，遂并天下，內興功作，外攘夷狄，收泰半之賦，發閭左之戍。男子力耕不足糧饟，女子紡績不足衣服。竭天下之資財以奉其政，猶未足以澹其欲也。海內愁怨，遂用潰畔。 漢興，接秦之敝，諸侯並起，民失作業，而大饑饉。凡米石五千，人相食，死者過半。高祖乃令民得賣子，就食蜀漢。天下既定，民亡蓋臧，自天子不能具醇駟，而將相或乘牛車。上於是約法省禁，輕田租，什五而稅一，量吏祿，度官用，以賦於民。而山川園池市肆租稅之入，自天子以至封君湯沐邑，皆各為私奉養，不領於天子之經費。漕轉關東粟以給中都官，歲不過數十萬石。孝惠、高后之間，衣食滋殖。文帝即位，躬修儉節，思安百姓。

I disliked the trade, and had a strong inclination for the sea, but my father declared against it; however, living near the water, I was much in and about it, learnt early to swim well, and to manage boats; and when in a boat or canoe with other boys, I was commonly allowed to govern, especially in any case of difficulty; and upon other occasions I was generally a leader among the boys, and sometimes led them into scrapes, of which I will mention one instance, as it shows an early projecting public spirit, tho' not then justly conducted.

I had from a child been ever delighted with this exercise, had studied and practis'd all Thevenot's motions and positions, added some of my own, aiming at the graceful and easy as well as the useful. All these I took this occasion of exhibiting to the company, and was much flatter'd by their admiration; and Wygate, who was desirous of becoming a master, grew more and more attach'd to me on that account, as well as from the similarity of our studies. He at length proposed to me travelling all over Europe together, supporting ourselves everywhere by working at our business. I was once inclined to it; but, mentioning it to my good friend Mr. Denham, with whom I often spent an hour when I had leisure, he dissuaded me from it, advising me to think only of returning to Pennsilvania, which he was now about to do.
