“There is always a reason, in the man, for his good or bad fortune in making money. Men talk as if there were some magic about this. He knows that all goes on the old road, pound for pound, cent for cent — for every effect a perfect cause — and that good luck is another name for tenacity of purpose.”

「人在賺錢過程中遇到的好運及壞運，都有它的理由，人們卻說得彷佛有魔力介入，但這道理放諸四海皆準，每一鎊、每一分錢 – 因為每一結果都有它相對應的原因 – 而運氣只是對目標執著的代名詞。」– 拉爾夫‧愛默生 (詩人)
