We have been thrown into finance mostly in the way of denial. Some years back we had to keep standing a denial that the Ford Motor Company was owned by the Standard Oil Company and with that denial, for convenience's sake, we coupled a denial that we were connected with any other concern or that we intended to sell cars by mail. Last year the best-liked rumour was that we were down in Wall Street hunting for money. I did not bother to deny that. It takes too much time to deny everything. Instead, we demonstrated that we did not need any money. Since then I have heard nothing more about being financed by Wall Street.

白话
福特公司常被卷入财务谣言,但大多以否认了事。多年前有人谣传福特汽车被标准石油公司拥有,他们顺便否认与任何其他公司有关联或打算邮购卖车。去年最流行的谣言是他们去华尔街找钱,福特懒得否认,因为否认太花时间。相反,他们证明自己不需要钱,之后就没再听到华尔街融资的说法。核心是行动胜于辩解。
上下文
福特在书中回忆公司多次被传财务谣言,他选择用事实回应。
