「今世之處士，魁然無徒，廓然獨居，上觀許由，下察接輿，計同范蠡，忠合子胥，天下和平，與義相扶，寡耦少徒，固其宜也，子何疑於我哉？ "Today's hermits stand aloof like giants without a retinue, scan the past for Xu You and Jie Yu, compare their schemes to Fan Li and their loyalty to Wu Zixu, yet live in a tranquil age where righteousness needs no loud champion. Of course they walk alone with few companions. Why should you find that strange in me?
