堯舜大聖,而生朱均。瞽鯀之愚,而生舜禹。揆以餘慶殃之理,似覺難憑 然堯舜之聖,初未嘗因朱均而減。瞽鯀之愚,亦不能因舜禹而掩

管仲(舊題):Guanzi, 第52篇七主七臣, Entry 7

管仲(舊題)《管子》· 第52篇七主七臣 · Leadership · Cognition · Wealth · Investing

夫凡私之所起,必生於主。夫上好本,則端正之士在前。上好利,則毀譽之士在側。上多喜善賞不隨其功,則士不爲用。數出重法而不克其罪,則姦不爲止。明王知其然,故見必然之政,立必勝之罰,故民知所必就,而知所必去。推則往,召則來,如墜重於高,如瀆水於地。故法不煩而吏不勞,民無犯禁。故百姓無怨於上,上亦法臣法,斷名決,無誹譽。故君法則主位安,臣法則貨賂止,而民無姦。嗚呼美哉!名斷言澤。

Andrew Carnegie:Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie, Excerpt 50

Andrew Carnegie《Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie》· Chapter VIII · Leadership

I remember being deeply affected by the reception I met with when I returned to my division. The men of the eastern end had gathered together with a cannon and while the train passed I was greeted with a salvo. This was perhaps the first occasion upon which my subordinates had an opportunity of making me the subject of any demonstration, and their reception made a lasting impression. I knew how much I cared for them and it was pleasing to know that they reciprocated my feelings. Working-men always do reciprocate kindly feeling. If we truly care for others we need not be anxious about their feelings for us. Like draws to like.
