安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
I seldom if ever visited England without going to see him, even after he had removed to Brighton that he might live looking out upon the sea, which appealed to and soothed him. I never met a man who seemed to weigh so carefully every action, every word--even the pettiest--and so completely to find guidance through his own conscience. He was no scoffer in religious matters. In the domain of theology, however, he had little regard for decorum. It was to him a very faulty system hindering true growth, and the idea of rewards and punishments struck him as an appeal to very low natures indeed. Still he never went to such lengths as Tennyson did upon an occasion when some of the old ideas were under discussion. Knowles[74] told me that Tennyson lost control of himself. Knowles said he was greatly disappointed with the son's life of the poet as giving no true picture of his father in his revolt against stern theology.

白话
卡内基说,他每次去英国几乎都会去看望这位朋友,哪怕对方搬到海边小镇布莱顿,他也照去不误。他佩服这个人凡事都极认真地掂量,连最细微的举动和话语都不马虎,而且完全靠自己的良心来指引。此人在宗教上并不嘲讽,但对神学那套规矩不太买账,觉得它妨碍人真正成长,所谓赏罚更是针对人性里很低的部分。不过他也说,这人再激烈也比不上诗人丁尼生某次讨论旧观念时失控的程度。核心是:认真对待自己的言行,但不必被僵化的教条绑住。
上下文
出自安德鲁·卡内基的自传,他回忆一位英国友人,并提到诗人丁尼生和评论家诺尔斯。
今日一问
你身边有没有那种凡事凭良心、却不被教条束缚的人?你可以从他们身上学什么?
