王某曰:古之学者,虽问以口而其传以心虽听以耳而其受以意。故为师者不烦,而学者有得也。孔子曰:“不愤不启,不悱①不发,举一隅②不以三隅反,则不复也。”夫孔子岂敢爱其道,骜③天下之学者,而不使其蚤④有知乎!以谓其问之不切,则其听之不专;其思之不深,则其取之不固。不专不固,而可以入者,口耳而已矣。吾所以教者,非将善其口耳也。

马说唐 韩愈世有伯乐,然后有千里马。千里马常有,而伯乐不常有。故虽有名马,祗辱于奴隶人之手,骈死于槽枥之间,不以千里称也。马之千里者,一食或尽粟一石。食马者不知其能千里而食也。是马也,虽有千里之能,食不饱,力不足,才美不外见,且欲与常马等不可得,安求其能千里也?策之不以其道,食之不能尽其材,鸣之而不能通其意,执策而临之,曰:“天下无马!”呜呼!其真无马邪?其真不知马也!
