楞伽阿跋多羅寶經註解 4.33

4.33

「大慧！若有說言如來說墮文字法者，此則妄說，法離文字故。是故大慧！我等諸佛及諸菩薩不說一字、不答一字。所以者何？法離文字故，非不饒益義說。言說者，眾生妄想故。大慧！若不說一切法者，教法則壞。教法壞者，則無諸佛、菩薩、緣覺、聲聞，若無者誰說為誰？」

"Mahāmati! If anyone says that the Tathāgata teaches dharmas that fall into letters, this is false speech, because the Dharma is free from letters. For this reason, Mahāmati, we Buddhas and bodhisattvas have not spoken a single word, nor answered with a single word. Why is this? Because the Dharma is free from letters, though it is not without expounding meaning to benefit [beings]. Speech is due to the vikalpa of sentient beings. Mahāmati, if all dharmas were not spoken of, the doctrine of the teachings would be destroyed. If the doctrine of the teachings were destroyed, there would be no Buddhas, bodhisattvas, pratyekabuddhas, or śrāvakas. If there were none, who would speak, and for whom?"
