爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
A cardinal point in Edward Bok's code of editing was not to commit his magazine to unwritten material, or to accept and print articles or stories simply because they were the work of well-known persons. And as his acquaintance with authors multiplied, he found that the greater the man the more willing he was that his work should stand or fall on its merit, and that the editor should retain his prerogative of declination--if he deemed it wise to exercise it.

白话
爱德华·博克编辑信条里有一条根本原则:不把杂志押在未写出的稿子上,也不因为作者是名人就接受并刊登他的文章或小说。随着他认识的作者越来越多,他发现越是了不起的人,越愿意让自己的作品凭质量决定去留,也越尊重编辑保留拒绝的权利——如果编辑认为该用的话。
上下文
博克在自传中总结自己编辑生涯的原则,强调不迷信名气和空头承诺。
