我的生活与工作·补录 358 · 亨利·福特

If a man is in constant fear of the industrial situation he ought to change his life so as not to be dependent upon it. There is always the land, and fewer people are on the land now than ever before. If a man lives in fear of an employer's favor changing toward him, he ought to extricate himself from dependence on any employer. He can become his own boss. It may be that he will be a poorer boss than the one he leaves, and that his returns will be much less, but at least he will have rid himself of the shadow of his pet fear, and that is worth a great deal in money and position. Better still is for the man to come through himself and exceed himself by getting rid of his fears in the midst of the circumstances where his daily lot is cast. Become a freeman in the place where you first surrendered your freedom. Win your battle where you lost it. And you will come to see that, although there was much outside of you that was not right, there was more inside of you that was not right. Thus you will learn that the wrong inside of you spoils even the right that is outside of you.

白话

如果一个人总害怕产业形势，就该改变生活，别依赖它。土地永远在，而且现在务农的人比以往都少。如果害怕雇主变脸，就该摆脱对任何雇主的依赖，自己当老板。可能你不如原来的老板，收入也少得多，但至少摆脱了心头恐惧的阴影，这在金钱和地位上都很值。更好的办法是：在让你恐惧的日常环境里，直接战胜恐惧，超越自己。在你最初交出自由的地方成为自由人，在你跌倒的地方赢回来。你会看到，外面有很多不对，但里面更多不对；内心的错误会毁掉外面的正确。

健康 · 马可·奥勒留《沉思录》

XXX. Many of those things that trouble and straiten thee, it is in thy power to cut off, as wholly depending from mere conceit and opinion; and then thou shalt have room enough.

许多让你烦恼、束缚你的事情，其实你完全有能力切断，因为它们仅仅来自你的想象和看法。一旦你认清这一点，就能摆脱它们，获得足够的空间。比如，别人一句批评让你难受，往往不是批评本身，而是你把它解读成否定。试着区分事实和你的臆想，把不必要的担忧放下，你会发现心里宽敞许多。关键是要觉察那些自动冒出来的念头，别被它们牵着走。

这是第三十八卷目录的延续，列出“务正本以足国用”疏（作者失名）以及“农桑部·艺文四”中的诗词，包括虞舜《祠田辞》、宋代颜延之《侍东耕诗》、谢庄《侍东耕》、南齐谢朓《赋贫民田》、梁武帝《籍田》、简文帝《和籍田》、陈代张正见《从籍田应衡阳王教作》、唐代王维《渭川田家》、杜甫《蚕谷行》和《茅堂检校收稻》等。这些作品从不同角度写农事、籍田和民生，说明农桑是历代文学和政论共同关注的主题。

事业 · 塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《自助论》

Truthfulness, integrity, and goodness—qualities that hang not on any man’s breath—form the essence of manly character, or, as one of our old writers has it, “that inbred loyalty unto Virtue which can serve her without a…

诚实、正直和善良，这些不靠别人吹捧的品质，是男子汉品格的核心，古人说是“对美德发自内心的忠诚，不用穿制服也能服侍她”。具备这些品质又有坚定目标的人，拥有不可抗拒的力量：能行善、能抗恶、能在困难和不幸中挺住。科隆纳的斯蒂芬落入敌人手中，被嘲笑“你的堡垒呢”，他拍着胸口说“在这里”。逆境最能显出正直者的光芒；当一切都靠不住时，他靠正直和勇气站立。
