P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导
My business occupations amply employed nearly all my time, yet so strong was my love of fun that when the opportunity for a practical joke presented itself, I could not resist the temptation.

白话
巴纳姆的生意几乎占满了全部时间,但他太爱恶作剧,一有机会就忍不住。有一次,他充当律师,替一个爱尔兰小贩打官司。小贩抱怨说,有个邻居把他赶出房子,还欺负了他。巴纳姆明知这案子多半是闹着玩,还是兴致勃勃地接了下来,准备好好演一场。
上下文
巴纳姆在自传中讲述自己早年爱搞恶作剧的性格,这次他假扮律师替小贩“打官司”,其实是一场玩笑。
