莎士比亚《李尔王》：
Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
多积财，少摆阔；耳多听，话少说。
原文：
FOOL.
Mark it, nuncle:
Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest,
Ride more than thou goest,
Learn more than thou trowest,
Set less than thou throwest;
Leave thy drink and thy whore,
And keep in-a-door,
弄人 听好，老伯伯；多积财，少摆阔；耳多听，话少说；少放款，多借债；走路不如骑马快；三言之中信一语，多掷骰子少下注；莫饮酒，莫嫖妓；闭门不管他家事；
