萬章曰：「堯以天下與舜，有諸？」 孟子曰：「否，天子不能以天下與人。」 「然則舜有天下也，孰與之？」 曰：「天與之。」 「天與之者，諄諄然命之乎？」 曰：「否，天不言，以行與事示之而已矣。」 曰：「以行與事示之者，如之何？」 曰：「天子能薦人於天，不能使天與之天下；諸侯能薦人於天子，不能使天子與之諸侯；大夫能薦人於諸侯，不能使諸侯與之大夫。昔者堯薦舜於天而天受之，暴之於民而民受之。故曰：天不言，以行與事示之而已矣。」 曰：「敢問薦之於天而天受之，暴之於民而民受之，如何？」 曰：「使之主祭而百神享之，是天受之。使之主事而事治，百姓安之，是民受之也。天與之，人與之，故曰：天子不能以天下與人。舜相堯，二十有八載，非人之所能為也，天也。堯崩，三年之喪畢，舜避堯之子於南河之南。天下諸侯朝覲者，不之堯之子而之舜；訟獄者，不之堯之子而之舜；謳歌者，不謳歌堯之子而謳歌舜；故曰『天』也。夫然後之中國，踐天子位焉。而居堯之宮，逼堯之子，是『篡』也，非『天與』也。《泰誓》曰：『天視自我民視，天聽自我民聽』，此之謂也。」

澄在鴻臚寺倉居，忽家信至，言兒病危，澄心甚憂悶，不能堪。 先生曰：「此時正宜用功。若此時放過，閒時講學何用？人正要在此等時磨鍊。父之愛子，自是至情，然天理亦自有個中和處，過即是私意。人於此處多認做天理當憂，則一向憂苦，不知已是『有所憂患不得其正』。大抵七情所感，多只是過，少不及者。才過，便非心之本體，必須調停適中始得。就如父母之喪，人子豈不欲一哭便死，方快於心？然卻曰『毀不滅性』，非聖人強制之也，天理本體自有分限，不可過也。人但要識得心體，自然增減分毫不得。」

We expect difficulty in matching our 1977 rate of return during the forthcoming year. Beginning equity capital is up 23% from a year ago, and we expect the trend of insurance underwriting profit margins to turn down well before the end of the year. Nevertheless, we expect a reasonably good year and our present estimate, subject to the usual caveats regarding the frailties of forecasts, is that operating earnings will improve somewhat on a per share basis during 1978.

I have the dynamo that I first had charge of at the Detroit Edison Company. When I started our Canadian plant I bought it from an office building to which it had been sold by the electric company, had it revamped a little, and for several years it gave excellent service in the Canadian plant. When we had to build a new power plant, owing to the increase in business, I had the old motor taken out to my museum--a room out at Dearborn that holds a great number of my mechanical treasures.

At Watts's printing-house I contracted an acquaintance with an ingenious young man, one Wygate, who, having wealthy relations, had been better educated than most printers; was a tolerable Latinist, spoke French, and lov'd reading. I taught him and a friend of his to swim at twice going into the river, and they soon became good swimmers. They introduc'd me to some gentlemen from the country, who went to Chelsea by water to see the College and Don Saltero's curiosities. In our return, at the request of the company, whose curiosity Wygate had excited, I stripped and leaped into the river, and swam from near Chelsea to Blackfryar's, performing on the way many feats of activity, both upon and under water, that surpris'd and pleas'd those to whom they were novelties.
