然悉力盡忠，以事聖帝，曠日持久，積數十年，官不過侍郎，位不過執戟，意者尚有遺行邪？ [Classical Chinese, trad.]
然悉力尽忠，以事圣帝，旷日持久，积数十年，官不过侍郎，位不过执戟，意者尚有遗行邪？ [Classical Chinese, simp.]- From: 138 BCE, 東方朔 (Dongfang Shuo),《答客難》, trans. Burton Watson
- Rán xīlì jìnzhōng, yǐ shì shèngdì, kuàngrìchíjiǔ, jī shùshí nián, guān bùguò shìláng, wèi bùguò zhíjǐ, yì zhě shàngyǒu yíxíng yé?
- Yet, though you have exhausted your strength and put forth the utmost loyalty in the service of our sage emperor, though you have piled up days and persisted for a long time, your rank does not exceed palace attendant, your post is no more than that of lance-bearer! I wonder, is it because there is still some action you have failed to perform?
