Yilin Verse

君子失意,小人得志。亂擾並作,姦邪充塞。雖有百堯,顛不可救。

The noble man loses his way; the petty man gains his will. Turmoil and upheaval arise together; villainy and treachery fill every space. Though there were a hundred Yaos, the fall could not be saved.

— Jiao Yanshou, Yilin (Forest of Changes), 1st century BCE
