奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导
Did things _adjust themselves_ when Horatius with two companions held ninety thousand Tuscans at bay until the bridge across the Tiber had been destroyed?--when Leonidas at Thermopylae checked the mighty march of Xerxes?--when Themistocles, off the coast of Greece, shattered the Persian's Armada?--when Caesar, finding his army hard pressed, seized spear and buckler, fought while he reorganized his men, and snatched victory from defeat?--when Winkelried gathered to his heart a sheaf of Austrian spears, thus opening a path through which his comrades pressed to freedom?--when for years Napoleon did not lose a single battle in which he was personally engaged?--when Wellington fought in many climes without ever being conquered?--when Ney, on a hundred fields, changed apparent disaster into brilliant triumph?--when Perry left the disabled _Lawrence_, rowed to the _Niagara_, and silenced the British guns?--when Sheridan arrived from Winchester just as the Union retreat was becoming a rout, and turned the tide by riding along the line?--when Sherman, though sorely pressed, signaled his men to hold the fort, and they, knowing that their leader was coming, held it?

白话
马登列举了一系列历史英雄：霍拉提乌斯和两个同伴挡住九万托斯卡人直到桥被毁；列奥尼达在温泉关阻挡薛西斯大军；地米斯托克利在希腊海岸击溃波斯舰队；凯撒在军队受困时亲自持盾战斗并扭转败局；温克尔里德用胸膛抱住奥地利长矛为战友打开通路；拿破仑多年亲自指挥未尝一败；威灵顿转战各地从未被征服；内伊多次化败为胜；佩里弃损坏的劳伦斯号转登尼亚加拉号并压制英军炮火；谢里登从温彻斯特赶到扭转溃退；谢尔曼被围时示意士兵守住堡垒，士兵因知他正赶来而坚守。核心是：关键时刻，个人的勇气和决断能改变历史。做法是：在危机中挺身而出，用行动而非言语激励他人。
