原文:夫以铜为镜,可以正衣冠;以古为镜,可以知兴替;以人为镜,可以知得失。魏征没,朕亡一镜矣!
译文:一个人用铜当镜子,可以照见衣帽是不是穿戴得端正;用历史当镜子,可以知道国家兴亡的原因;用人当镜子,可以发现自己的对错。魏征一死,我就少了一面好镜子啊。

有一次魏征激烈进谏,把唐太宗气得半死。太宗皇帝气冲冲地跑回他的寝宫,边走边喊:“会须杀此田舍翁!”长孙皇后见他怒发冲冠暴躁如雷,心里思索——谁能令堂堂天子发怒到如此地步还不被立即处斩?只有魏征办得到。
于是长孙皇后去换了套端庄华丽的衣服,走到唐太宗面前,跪下来诚挚地恭贺:恭喜皇上!贺喜皇上! 唐太宗本来气得半死,见长孙皇后这番举动,莫名其妙。长孙皇后道:皇上,惟有明主出现,臣子才敢直言不讳。唐太宗一听转怒为喜:如此,吾明主耳!
后来魏征去世了,唐太宗哭得很伤心,他说:我有三面镜子(以前都是铜镜),“以铜为镜,可以正衣冠”,可以把他的衣服、帽子戴好;“以史为镜”,用历史来观照自己的施政,“可以知兴替”,怎么做才可以让朝代兴,怎么做会让朝代败,他可以从历史观照的到。
“以人为镜”,用到一个贤良的大臣来劝诫他,“可以明得失”,可以了解到他所有的政策的得跟失,进而去修正。唐太宗说他有这三面镜子,魏征死了,也就坏了一面。从这里我们也可以看出来,一个贤明的君主一定是非常惜才、爱才,他才能够赢得这些大臣对他的信任。
