P.T. 巴纳姆《奋斗与胜利》· Struggles and Triumphs · 领导
After they had been about a week at the Museum, one of the chiefs discovered that visitors paid money for entering. This information he soon communicated to the other chiefs, and I heard an immediate murmur of discontent. Their eyes were opened, and no power could induce them to appear again upon the stage. Their dignity had been offended, and their wild, flashing eyes were anything but agreeable. Indeed, I hardly felt safe in their presence, and it was with a feeling of relief that I witnessed their departure for Washington the next morning.

白话
酋长们在博物馆待了大约一周后,其中一位发现观众是花钱进来看他们的。他把这事告诉其他酋长,立刻引来不满的嘀咕。他们觉得尊严受损,再也不肯上台。他们眼中闪出野性的怒火,让巴纳姆感到不安全,直到第二天早上看他们动身去华盛顿,他才松了一口气。巴纳姆意识到:当表演者发现自己是“被看的商品”时,合作就会破裂。他之前靠尊重和贵客待遇维持的关系,在金钱真相面前不堪一击。这提醒他,涉及尊严的事,不能只靠表面功夫。
上下文
巴纳姆的博物馆以收费展览为生,印第安酋长发现后感到被利用,拒绝继续演出。
