管子语录 汉英双解

【原文】宽乎形，徒居而致名。去善之言，为善之事，事成而顾反无名。能者无名，从事无事。审量出入，而观物所载。《白心》

【汉解】身心闲适，安坐而可以得名。说了好话，做了好事，事成后还应该回到无名的状态。有才能的往往不求出名，真干事的往往显得无事。审量政令的出入，要根据事物的实际承担能力行事。

【英译】He relaxes his body, and without doing anything achieves fame. He abjures the well-spoken word yet performs the well-done deed. Though his undertakings are successful, he seeks to remain nameless. Those who posses real ability do not become famous. They manage their affairs so smoothly there appears to be nothing to it.
