安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导

That Skibo has proved the best of all health resorts for Morley is indeed fortunate, for he comes to us several times each summer and is one of the family, Lady Morley accompanying him. He is as fond of the yacht as I am myself, and, fortunately again, it is the best medicine for both of us. Morley is, and must always remain, "Honest John." No prevarication with him, no nonsense, firm as a rock upon all questions and in all emergencies; yet always looking around, fore and aft, right and left, with a big heart not often revealed in all its tenderness, but at rare intervals and upon fit occasion leaving no doubt of its presence and power. And after that silence.

白话

卡内基说,斯基博庄园对莫利是最好的疗养地,莫利夫妇每年夏天都来,像家人一样。莫利和他一样爱游艇,游艇对两人都是良药。莫利永远是“诚实的约翰”:不撒谎、不胡闹,遇事稳如磐石;但他也会前后左右观察,心肠很软,只是很少显露,偶尔在合适场合才让人确信它的存在。这提醒我们,可靠不等于刻板,真正的正直包含审慎和深藏的温情。

上下文

卡内基描述莫利在苏格兰斯基博庄园的休养生活,以及他正直而审慎的性格。

今日一问

你身边有没有那种平时不露温情、但关键时刻靠得住的人?
