亨利·福特《我的生活与工作》· My Life and Work · 领导
It ought to be clear, however, that the high wage begins down in the shop. If it is not created there it cannot get into pay envelopes. There will never be a system invented which will do away with the necessity of work. Nature has seen to that. Idle hands and minds were never intended for any one of us. Work is our sanity, our self-respect, our salvation. So far from being a curse, work is the greatest blessing. Exact social justice flows only out of honest work. The man who contributes much should take away much. Therefore no element of charity is present in the paying of wages. The kind of workman who gives the business the best that is in him is the best kind of workman a business can have. And he cannot be expected to do this indefinitely without proper recognition of his contribution. The man who comes to the day's job feeling that no matter how much he may give, it will not yield him enough of a return to keep him beyond want, is not in shape to do his day's work. He is anxious and worried, and it all reacts to the detriment of his work.

白话
福特指出,高工资始于车间。如果不在那里创造出来,就无法进入工资袋。永远不会有系统能消除工作的必要性,大自然决定了这一点。闲散的手和头脑从来不是为任何人准备的。工作是我们的理智、自尊和救赎。工作不是诅咒,而是最大的祝福。精确的社会正义只来自诚实的工作。贡献多的人应该拿走多。因此支付工资不含慈善成分。那种把企业做到最好的工人,是企业能拥有的最好的工人。如果不能适当认可他的贡献,就不能指望他无限期地这样做。一个人来上班时觉得无论付出多少都得不到足够回报维持生活,他就不在状态。他焦虑担忧,这一切都会损害工作。
