Biography
毛弘，鄞人。
明史卷一百八十 列传第六十八：
毛弘，字士广，鄞人。登天顺初进士。六年授刑科给事中。成化三年夏，偕六科诸臣上言：“比塞上多事，正陛下宵衣旰食时。乃闻退朝之暇，颇事逸游。炮声数闻于外，非禁城所宜有。况灾变频仍，两畿水旱，川、广兵草之余，公私交困。愿省游戏宴饮之娱，停金豆、银豆之赏。日御经筵，讲求正学，庶几上解天怒，下慰人心。”御史展毓等亦以为言，皆嘉纳。
帝从学士商辂请，改元后建言罢官者悉录用。弘请断自践阼而后，召还给事中王徽等，不许。慈懿太后崩，诏别葬。弘偕魏元等疏谏，未得请。朝罢，弘倡言曰：“此大事，吾辈当以死谏，请合大小臣工伏阙固争。”众许诺。有退却者，给事中张宾呼曰：“君辈独不受国恩乎，何为首鼠两端。”乃伏哭文华门，竟得如礼。
弘在垣中所论列最多，声震朝宁。帝颇厌苦之，尝曰：“昨日毛弘，今日毛弘。”前后所陈，或不见听，而弘慷慨论议无所屈。钦天监正谷滨受赇当除名，命输赎贬秩。正一真人张元吉有罪论死，诏系狱。弘等皆固争，终不听。三迁至都给事中。得疾，暴卒。
