Definitions
璞
- uncut jade
- 夫珠玉，人主之所急也。和雖獻璞而未美，未為主之害也；然猶兩足斬而寶乃論，論寶若此其難也。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]
- From: Han Feizi, circa 2nd century BCE
- Fú zhūyù, rénzhǔ zhī suǒjí yě. Hé suī xiàn pú ér wèi měi, wèi wéi zhǔ zhī hài yě; rán yóu liǎngzú zhǎn ér bǎo nǎi lùn, lùn bǎo ruò cǐ qí nán yě. [Pinyin]
- Indeed, pearls and gems are what the lord of men wants badly. Though Ho presented the uncut jade to the Throne, before it was made beautiful, he was never a harm to His Majesty. Nevertheless, it was only after both his feet had been cut off that the treasure was acknowledged. That to establish an opinion of a treasure should be so difficult!
夫珠玉，人主之所急也。和虽献璞而未美，未为主之害也；然犹两足斩而宝乃论，论宝若此其难也。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]
