每个民族有它区别于其它民族的独特个性。然而,比起那些相异点来,这个世界上的人有更多的相似点。每个国家都不难见到这样一种人:他总是试图工作得尽可能少而获取的报酬尽可能多。与此相反,有人除了恪尽职守外,还习惯于做许多份外事,并且不计较任何报酬。这种人哪儿都少见。 这两种人通常都意识不到自己的个性。工作懈怠的人经常诉说他的“理由”,他似乎认为社会亏欠他一份轻松愉快的生活。而惯于做份外事的人则常常谈到“责任”:他觉得是个人欠了社会的债,而不是社会欠了个人的债。什么花结什么果,两者都不认为自己的表现有丝毫值得诧怪的地方。 Each nation has its unique personality that distinguishes it from other nations. However, people in this world have more similarities than those differences. It is not hard for every country to see such a person: he always tries to get as little as possible and receives as much reward as he can. On the contrary, in addition to fulfilling their duties, some people are accustomed to doing many foreign affairs without regard to any remuneration. Such people are rare anywhere. These two kinds of people are usually not aware of their own personality. People who work slack often tell his “reasons,” and he seems to think that society owes him a lighthearted life. Those accustomed to doing extramarital affairs often talk of “responsibility”: what he thinks is an individual’s debt to the community, not the social debt owed to the individual. What is the result of the flowers, both do not think their performance is the slightest surprise.
