爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
The editor now sought an opportunity to know personally the man whom he admired. It came at a dinner at the University Club, and Colonel Roosevelt suggested that they meet there the following day for a "talk-fest." For three hours the two talked together. The fact that Colonel Roosevelt was of Dutch ancestry interested Bok; that Bok was actually of Dutch birth made a strong appeal to the colonel. With his tremendous breadth of interests, Roosevelt, Bok found, had followed him quite closely in his work, and was familiar with "its high points," as he called them. "We must work for the same ends," said the colonel, "you in your way, I in mine. But our lines are bound to cross. You and I can each become good Americans by giving our best to make America better. With the Dutch stock there is in both of us, there's no limit to what we can do. Let's go to it." Naturally that talk left the two firm friends.

白话
博克想结识自己钦佩的罗斯福，一次俱乐部晚宴上，罗斯福提议次日再聚长谈。两人聊了三小时，发现彼此都有荷兰血统，罗斯福对博克的工作也很熟悉。罗斯福说：我们目标一致，只是方式不同，你我都该尽力让美国更好，凭我们的荷兰血统，能做的事没有上限。这番话让两人成了坚定朋友。核心是：主动创造机会与敬佩的人深谈，找到共同点并表达合作意愿，关系自然牢固。
