安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
He had hitherto sat silent and motionless, taking the successive addresses from one officer and handing them to another to be placed upon the table. The chief subject under discussion had been World Peace, which he could have, and in my opinion, would have secured, had he not been surrounded by the military caste which inevitably gathers about one born to the throne--a caste which usually becomes as permanent as the potentate himself, and which has so far in Germany proved its power of control whenever the war issue has been presented. Until militarism is subordinated, there can be no World Peace.

白话
德皇在会议上沉默不动，只把文件递给军官。讨论主题是世界和平，卡内基认为他本可确保和平，但被围绕君主的军事阶层包围，这个阶层在德国总能控制战争议题。结论：不制服军国主义，就没有世界和平。这提醒我们：制度环境比个人意愿更重要。可做的是：在组织中警惕小圈子影响决策，建立制衡机制。
上下文
卡内基回忆一次和平会议，德皇威廉二世在场但受军方影响。当时德国军国主义盛行，最终导致一战。
