爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

"Well, Edward, you are right and you are wrong," said Mr. Beecher. "And so is Storrs, of course. It is beneath him to do what he has done. Storrs and I are not good friends, as you know, and so I cannot go to him and ask him the reason of his disclaimer. Otherwise I would. Of course, he may have forgotten his remarks: that is always possible in a busy man's life. He may not have received the letter enclosing them. That is likewise possible. But I have a feeling that Storrs has some reason for wishing to repudiate his views on this subject just at this time. What it is I do not, of course, know, but his vehemence makes me think so. I think I should let him have his rein. Keep you quiet. It may damage you a little here and there, but in the end it won't harm you. In the main point, you are right. You are not a forger. The sentiments are his and he uttered them, and he should stand by them. He threatens to bring you into court, I see from to-day's paper. Wait until he does so."

白话

比彻先生分析说:博克对,斯托尔斯也占理,但斯托尔斯公开否认有失身份。他猜测斯托尔斯可能忘了旧言论,或没收到信,也可能另有隐情想撇清关系。他建议博克保持沉默,让斯托尔斯去闹,因为核心事实是博克没伪造,观点确实是斯托尔斯的。比彻说,短期可能受损,但长远无碍,等对方真起诉再应对。这体现了以静制动、相信事实的策略。

上下文

比彻是当时著名牧师,给博克提供建议,分析斯托尔斯动机。

今日一问

当对方无理取闹时,你能忍住不反击,让事实说话吗?
