孔子曰。非其鬼而祭之諂也（論語。孔子謂非其鬼者。謂不當祭之鬼如祭之者。諂也。求媚也）。
Confucius said, 'To sacrifice to a ghost that does not belong to oneself is flattery' (In the Analects, when Confucius speaks of 'a ghost that does not belong to oneself', it refers to a ghost one ought not to sacrifice to; if one sacrifices to it, it is flattery, seeking to curry favor).
