礼者、所以正身也,师者、所以正礼也。无礼何以正身?无师吾安知礼之为是也?礼然而然,则是情安礼也;师云而云,则是知若师也。情安礼,知若师,则是圣人也。故非礼,是无法也;非师,是无师也。不是师法,而好自用,譬之是犹以盲辨色,以聋辨声也,舍乱妄无为也。故学也者,礼法也。夫师、以身为正仪,而贵自安者也。《诗》云:「不识不知,顺帝之则。」此之谓也。
礼,是用来端正自身的;师,是用来端正礼的。没有礼,凭什么端正自身?没有师,我怎能知道礼是正确的?礼义规定了就如此去做,这是内心安于礼;老师说了就如此去做,这是智识与师相同。内心安于礼、智识与师相同,就是圣人了。所以违背礼,是没有法度;违背师,是没有师导。不是师法,而喜欢自行其是,就好比让盲人辨别颜色,让聋子辨别声音,除了混乱妄为,别无他途。所以学习,就是学习礼法。老师,是以自身为端正仪范,以此引导学生自我安定的人。《诗经》说:「不识不知,顺从上天的法则。」说的就是这个道理。
——《荀子·修身》
