一个人的未来，和人间全体的未来相照应；一件事的朕兆，和世界全域的朕兆有关联。 [MSC, simp.]- 這區別並不煩難，只要觀人，省己，凡言動中，思想中，含有借此據為己有的朕兆者是寇盜，含有借此占些目前的小便宜的朕兆者是奴才，無論在前面打著的是怎樣鮮明好看的旗子。 [MSC, trad.]
- From: 1925, February 6, Lu Xun（魯迅）, More Thoughts on the Collapse of Leifeng Pagoda（《再論雷峰塔的倒掉》）, English translation based on the work by Yang Xianyi and Gladys Yang

- The difference is not difficult to detect: all we have to do is watch others and test ourselves. Anyone who in thought or deed shows signs of taking things for himself is a bandit, while anyone who shows signs of seizing small advantages is a slave, however splendid and handsome the banner he carries.
这区别并不烦难，只要观人，省己，凡言动中，思想中，含有借此据为己有的朕兆者是寇盗，含有借此占些目前的小便宜的朕兆者是奴才，无论在前面打着的是怎样鲜明好看的旗子。 [MSC, simp.]
