选自汉·桓宽《盐铁论·诏圣》。目,网眼。不可,不能。法律制度太粗疏难以治国,就像网眼太少的渔网往往网不到鱼一样。这句话以比喻之法说明立法要周全、精细,不能失之粗疏,否则不易于执法者依法操作。而不能操作,执法者就有了太大的自由度,这就等于没有法律了。
Our frustration is greater when we have much and want more than when we have nothing and want some. We are less dissatisfied when we lack many things than when we seem to lack but one thing.
The only thing that matters is the work itself.
