上謂裴寂曰：「比多上書言事者，朕皆粘之屋壁，得出入省覽，每思治道，或深夜方寢。公輩亦當恪勤職業，副朕此意。」

反者道之動， 弱者道之用。 天下萬物生於有，有生於無。

王弼本·四十章

It would be too ridiculous to go about seriously to prove, that wealth does not consist in money, or in gold and silver; but in what money purchases, and is valuable only for purchasing. Money, no doubt, makes always a part of the national capital; but it has already been shown that it generally makes but a small part, and always the most unprofitable part of it.

Book IV, Chapter I, paragraph 1014

得衆而不得其心，則與獨行者同實。兵不完利，與無操者同實。甲不堅密，與俴者同實。弩不可以及遠，與短兵同實。射而不能中，與無矢者同實。中而不能入，與無鏃者同實。將徒人，與俴者同實。短兵待遠矢，與坐而待死者同實。故凡兵有大論，必先論其器，論其士，論其將，論其主。故曰：器濫惡不利者，以其士予人也；士不可用者，以其將予人也；將不知兵者，以其主予人也；主不積務於兵者，以其國予人也。故一器成，往夫具，而天下無戰心。二器成，驚夫具，而天下無守城。三器成，游夫具，而天下無聚衆。所謂無戰心者，知戰必不勝，故曰無戰心。所謂無守城者，知城必拔，故曰無守城。所謂無聚衆者，知衆必散，故曰無聚衆。

Our gain in net worth during 1995 was $5.3 billion, or 45.0%. Per-share book value grew by a little less, 43.1%, because we paid stock for two acquisitions, increasing our shares outstanding by 1.3%. Over the last 31 years (that is, since present management took over) per-share book value has grown from $19 to $14,426, or at a rate of 23.6% compounded annually.
