前言

In 1909, I was one of the unhappiest lads in New York. I was selling motor-trucks for a living. I didn't know what made a motor-truck run. That wasn't all: I didn't want to know. I despised my job. I despised living in a cheap furnished room on West Fifty-sixth Street —— a room infested with cockroaches. I still remember that I had a bunch of neckties hanging on the walls; and when I reached out of a morning to get a fresh necktie, the cockroaches scattered in all directions. I despised having to eat in cheap, dirty restaurants that were also probably infested with cockroaches.I came home to my lonely room each night with a sick headache - a headache bred and fed by disappointment, worry, bitterness, and rebellion. I was rebelling because the dreams I had nourished back in my college days had turned into nightmares. Was this life？ Was this the vital adventure to which I had looked forward so eagerly？ Was this all life would ever mean to me —— working at a job I despised, living with cockroaches, eating vile food —— and with no hope for the future？... I longed for leisure to read, and to write the books I had dreamed of writing back in my college days.I knew I had everything to gain and nothing to lose by giving up the job I despised. I wasn't interested in making a lot of money, but I was interested in making a lot of living. In short, I had come to the Rubicon —— to that moment of decision which faces most young people when they start out in life.

章節(jié)摘錄
Forty-two years later, on a soft spring night when the tulips were blooming on the campus, this man, Sir William Osler, addressed the students of Yale University. He told those Yale students that a man like himself who had been a professor in four universities and had written a popular book was supposed to have "brains of a special quality". He declared that that was untrue. He said that his intimate friends knew that his brains were "of the most mediocre character".What, then, was the secret of his success？ He stated that it was owing to what he called living in "day-tight compartments." What did he mean by that？ A few months before he spoke at Yale, Sir William Osler had crossed the Atlantic on a great ocean liner where the captain standing on the bridge, could press a button and —— presto！ —— there was a clanging of machinery and various parts of the ship were immediately shut off from one another —— shut off into watertight compartments. "Now each one of you," Dr. Osler said to those Yale students, "is a much more marvelous organization than the great liner, and bound on a longer voyage. What I urge is that you so learn to control the machinery as to live with 'day-tight compartments' as the most certain way to ensure safety on the voyage. Get on the bridge, and see that at least the great bulkheads are in working order. Touch a button and hear, at every level of your life, the iron doors shutting out the Past —— the dead yesterdays. Touch another and shut off, with a metal curtain, the Future —— the unborn tomorrows. Then you are safe —— safe for today！... Shut off the past！ Let the dead past bury its dead  Shut out the yesterdays which have lighted fools the way to dusty death  The load of tomorrow, added to that of yesterday, carried today, makes the strongest falter. Shut off the future as tightly as the past  The future is today  There is no tomorrow. The day of man's salvation is now.
