本杰明·富兰克林自传·补录 49 · 本杰明·富兰克林

In our house there lodg'd a young woman, a milliner, who, I think, had a shop in the Cloisters. She had been genteelly bred, was sensible and lively, and of most pleasing conversation. Ralph read plays to her in the evenings, they grew intimate, she took another lodging, and he followed her. They liv'd together some time; but, he being still out of business, and her income not sufficient to maintain them with her child, he took a resolution of going from London, to try for a country school, which he thought himself well qualified to undertake, as he wrote an excellent hand, and was a master of arithmetic and accounts. This, however, he deemed a business below him, and confident of future better fortune, when he should be unwilling to have it known that he once was so meanly employed, he changed his name, and did me the honor to assume mine; for I soon after had a letter from him, acquainting me that he was settled in a small village (in Berkshire, I think it was, where he taught reading and writing to ten or a dozen boys, at sixpence each per week), recommending Mrs. T------ to my care, and desiring me to write to him, directing for Mr. Franklin, schoolmaster, at such a place.

白话

我们住处有个年轻女帽商，在修道院附近开店。她教养好、聪明活泼，谈吐讨人喜欢。拉尔夫晚上给她读剧本，两人渐渐亲密，她搬走了，他也跟了过去。他们同居了一阵，但拉尔夫一直没工作，她的收入养不起两人和孩子，于是他决定离开伦敦，去乡下找所学校教书。他觉得自己字写得好，算术和记账也精通，完全能胜任。可他又觉得这行当太掉价，自信将来会发达，不愿让人知道他曾干过这么低贱的活，于是改了姓，冒用我的姓。不久我收到他的信，说他在伯克郡一个小村子安顿下来，教十来个男孩读写，每人每周六便士，还托我照顾T太太，并让我写信时写“富兰克林校长收”。

你是否也曾因为觉得某份工作“掉价”而犹豫，甚至想隐瞒自己的经历？

健康 · 管仲（旧题）《管子》

言而語道德忠信孝弟者，此言無棄者。天公平而無私，故美惡莫不覆。地公平而無私，故小大莫不載。無棄之言，公平而無私，故賢不肖莫不用。故無棄之言者，參伍於天地之無私也。故曰：「有無棄之言者，必參之於天地矣。」

核心是：说话不抛弃任何人，才合天地无私。讲道德忠信孝悌，就是不抛弃任何人。天公平无私，所以美恶都覆盖；地公平无私，所以大小都承载。不抛弃人的言论，公平无私，所以贤与不肖都任用。这种言论，可与天地无私相配。所以说：有无弃之言者，必参之于天地。

投资 · 陈梦雷等（编）《钦定古今图书集成·食货典》

不載按《續文獻通考》。十一年。詔常州嘉興府行經界。青田縣主簿陳耆卿奏。「臣聞之孟軻曰：『行仁政必自經界始』。經界蓋良法也。不幸而經界法壞。則所信者簿書爾。併簿書而不足信。則何所取信哉。且有田則有賦役。此常理也。田有多寡。則賦役有輕重。亦常理也。今之世乃有田愈多而賦役愈輕者，有無田而賦役反重者，此弊在在有之，而本郡尤甚。」姑以青田一縣言之，自往歲巨浸之後，牒紙散逸，而縱橫變化，在吏之掌握而已。稅之厚薄，當視其物力，物力之高下，當視其產。

嘉定十一年，下诏常州、嘉兴府推行经界法。青田县主簿陈耆卿上奏说：孟子讲行仁政必从经界开始，经界是良法。但经界法一旦败坏，就只能相信簿书，簿书不可信又信什么？有田就有赋役，田多赋役重，田少赋役轻，这是常理。如今却有田越多赋役越轻的，没有田反而赋役重的，这种弊病到处都有，本郡尤其严重。以青田县为例，大水之后簿册散失，赋税轻重全由吏员操纵。税额厚薄应看物力，物力高低应看田产。

事业 · 约翰·D·洛克菲勒《洛克菲勒回忆录》

It may be urged that doing the work in this systematic and apparently cold-blooded way leaves out of consideration, to a large extent, the merits of individual cases. My contention is that the organization of work in…

有人可能批评：这种系统化、看似冷冰冰的慈善方式，忽略了个案的实际情况。但我的看法是，有组织地合作并不会扼杀个人善举，反而会加强和激励它。如今，有序的慈善合作每天都在增长，同时，广泛的慈善精神也从未像现在这样普遍。
