以国为国，以天下为天下
以治国的方法治国，以治天下的方法治天下。管子认为，治理者不能拿治理“家”的方法直接用于治“乡”，不能拿治“乡”的方法直接用于治“国”（诸侯国），也不能拿治“国”的方法直接用于治“天下”（天子的统治范围）。而必须随着治理范围的变化而调整治理方法；必须随着治理范围的扩大，开拓自己的视野和胸襟。而在现代语境下，“国”可理解为国家，“天下”可理解为世界。
Rule a State or a Country with Different Methods
To rule a state, use the methods for governing a state. To rule a country, use the methods for governing a country. Guanzi held that a ruler must not use the methods for governing a clan to rule a town, nor use the methods for governing a town to rule a state, nor use the methods for governing a state to rule a country. One must change one's methods of governance according to differences in the area under one's rule. One must broaden one's vision and mind as the area under one's rule expands. In modern language, the "state" could be interpreted as a country, and the "country" as the world.
引例
以家为乡，乡不可为也；以乡为国，国不可为也；以国为天下，天下不可为也。以家为家，以乡为乡，以国为国，以天下为天下。（《管子·牧民》）（按照治家的要求治乡，乡不可能治好；按照治乡的要求治国，国不可能治好；按照治国的要求治理天下，天下不可能治好。应该按照治家的要求治家，按照治乡的要求治乡，按照治国的要求治国，按照治天下的要求治天下。）
To rule a town with the methods for governing a clan, the town will not be run well. To rule a state with the methods for governing a town, the state will not be run well. To rule a country with the methods for governing a state, the country will not be run well. To rule a clan, one must meet the requirements for governing a clan. To rule a town, one must meet the requirements for governing a town. To rule a state, one must meet the requirements for governing a state. To rule a country, one must meet the requirements for governing a country. (Guanzi)
