安德鲁·卡内基自传·补录 363 · 安德鲁·卡内基

The general public, of course, did not know that I was in Scotland and knew nothing of the initial trouble at Homestead. Workmen had been killed at the Carnegie Works, of which I was the controlling owner. That was sufficient to make my name a by-word for years. But at last some satisfaction came. Senator Hanna was president of the National Civic Federation, a body composed of capitalists and workmen which exerted a benign influence over both employers and employed, and the Honorable Oscar Straus, who was then vice-president, invited me to dine at his house and meet the officials of the Federation. Before the date appointed Mark Hanna, its president, my lifelong friend and former agent at Cleveland, had suddenly passed away. I attended the dinner. At its close Mr. Straus arose and said that the question of a successor to Mr. Hanna had been considered, and he had to report that every labor organization heard from had favored me for the position. There were present several of the labor leaders who, one after another, arose and corroborated Mr. Straus.

白话

公众不知道卡内基当时在苏格兰，也不了解霍姆斯特德最初麻烦的细节，只知道卡内基工厂死了工人，而他是老板，于是他的名字多年成为骂名。后来有了一些安慰：参议员汉纳是全国公民联合会主席，这个由资本家和工人组成的机构对劳资双方都有良好影响。副主席奥斯卡·斯特劳斯邀请卡内基赴宴见联合会官员。但宴会前，主席汉纳突然去世。卡内基仍出席，宴会结束时斯特劳斯说，接替汉纳的人选已考虑过，所有劳工组织都推举卡内基。在场几位劳工领袖也一一站起来证实。

健康 · 亨利·戴维·梭罗《瓦尔登湖》

If others pay the tax which is demanded of me, from a sympathy with the State, they do but what they have already done in their own case, or rather they abet injustice to a greater extent than the State requires. If…

如果别人出于对国家的同情，替我缴了催我的税，他们不过是把自己已经做过的事再做一遍，甚至比国家要求的更助长了不公。如果他们出于对某个纳税人的错误关心，为了保住他的财产或免他坐牢而代缴，那是因为他们没有认真想过：让私人感情干涉公共善，到底能走多远。好心代缴看似帮忙，实则模糊了责任，让不义之事继续运转。真正该做的是想清楚：我的同情心是在维护公正，还是在替不公正打掩护。

投资 · 陈梦雷等（编）《钦定古今图书集成·食货典》

宋用賈似道行《限田制》，官田抑令買，公田抑令賣官與民市，而重估抑勒之弊并作，勢所必至矣。自元季喪亂，版籍亡佚，田賦紊明。太祖即帝位，遣周鑄等一百六十四人，覈浙西田賦。又以中原田多荒蕪，命省臣議計民授田，設司農司開治河南，掌其事。詔：「臨濠田，驗丁力給畝，毋多占。北方郡縣近城地多不治，召民耕，人給十五畝蔬，地二畝，免租三年。若王國郭外五里備操牧，餘悉令開耕。每年中書省奏知，天下墾田數，少以千計，多者以二十餘萬計。官給」牛及農具者，收其稅。

宋代贾似道推行《限田制》，官府强迫买官田，又强迫卖公田，官民交易，重估抑勒的弊端一并发生，势所必然。元末战乱，户籍册散失，田赋紊乱。明太祖即位，派周铸等一百六十四人核实浙西田赋。又因中原田多荒芜，命省臣议计民授田，设司农司开治河南，掌管此事。下诏：临濠田按丁力给亩，不得多占。北方郡县近城地多未治，召民耕种，每人给十五亩蔬地、二亩，免租三年。若王国外五里备操牧，其余都令开耕。每年中书省奏知天下垦田数，少以千计，多以二十余万计。官给牛和农具的，收其税。

事业 · 约翰·D·洛克菲勒《洛克菲勒回忆录》

Written presentations form the necessary basis of investigation, of consultation, and comparison of views between the different members of our staff, and of the final presentation to me.

洛克菲勒要求所有求助都写成书面材料，因为书面材料是调查、讨论和比较的基础。工作人员可以据此研究、交换意见，最后再呈交给他做决定。口头说说容易遗漏或夸大，白纸黑字才能让不同的人反复查看、对照，也方便留下记录。这样既对捐款人负责，也对求助者负责，让真正的好项目得到认真对待。
