John Maynard Keynes (1930):
I see us free, therefore, to return to some of the most sure and certain
principles of religion and traditional virtue-that avarice is a vice, that
the exaction of usury is a misdemeanour, and the love of money is detestable
, that those walk most truly in the paths of virtue and sane wisdom who take
least thought for the morrow. We shall once more value ends above means and
prefer the good to the useful. We shall honour those who can teach us how
to pluck the hour and the day virtuously and well, the delightful people who
are capable of taking direct enjoyment in things, the lilies of the field
who toil not, neither do they spin.
But beware! The time for all this is not yet. For at least another hundred
years we must pretend to ourselves and to every one that fair is foul and
foul is fair; for foul is useful and fair is not. Avarice and usury and
precaution must be our gods for a little longer still. For only they can
lead us out of the tunnel of economic necessity into daylight.
但是请注意！这一天还没有到来。至少在未来的一百年内，我们必须自欺欺人，认为美
就是丑，丑就是美。因为丑比美实用。今后一段时间，贪婪，盘剥和谨小慎微依然会被
奉若神明，因为只有这些才能把我们带出经济必然性的黑暗隧道见到天日。
