*與醜腿(3)

An old philosophical friend of mine was grown; form experience; very cautious in this particular; and carefully avoided any intimacy with such people。 He had; like other philosophers; a thermometer to show him the heat of the weather; and a barometer to mark when it was likely to prove good or bad; but; there being no instrument invented to discover; at first sight; this unpleasing disposition in a person; he for that purpose made use of his legs; one of which was remarkably handsome; the other; by some accident; crooked and deformed。 If a Stranger; at the first interview; regarded his ugly Leg more than his handsome one; he doubted him。 If he spoke of it; & took no notice of the handsome Leg; that was sufficient to determine my Philosopher to have no further Acquaintance with him。 Every body has not this two…legged Instrument; but every one with a little Attention; may observe Signs of that carping; fault…finding Disposition; & take the same Resolution of avoiding the Acquaintance of those infected with it。 I therefore advise those critical; querulous; discontented; unhappy People; that if they wish to be respected and beloved by others; & happy in themselves they should leave off looking at the ugly Leg。

在一把舊鎖上發現了一則重要的銘文——如果我休息,我就生鏽。對於那些為懶散而苦惱的人來說,這將是至理名言。甚至勤奮工作的人也可以此為警示,如果一個人有才而不用,就像廢棄鑰匙上的鐵,很快就會生鏽,最終不能適應工作。

那些想取得像偉人那樣的成就,併成為偉人的人,必須不斷地使用自身才能得以提升自身,以便使知識的大門、人類為之奮鬥的每個領域——專業、科學、藝術、文學、農業的大門——不會被鎖上。

勤奮是開啟成功寶庫的鑰匙。如果休·米勒白天在伐木場勞作後,晚上停下來休息消遣的話,就不會成為名垂青史的地理學家。著名的數學家愛德蒙·斯通,如果閒暇時無所事事,就不會出版數學詞典,也不會發現開啟數學大門的鑰匙。如果蘇格蘭
