Don’t go changing, to try and please me You never let me down before Don’t imagine you’re too familiar And I don’t see you anymore I wouldn’t leave you in times of trouble We never could have come this far I took the good times, I’ll take the bad times I’ll take you just the way you are
Don’t go trying some new fashion Don’t change the color of your hair You always have my unspoken passion Although I might not seem to care
I don’t want clever conversation I never want to work that hard I just want someone that I can talk to I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be The same old someone that I knew What will it take till you believe in me The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that’s forever And this I promise from the heart I could not love you any better I love you just the way you are.
2000年7月，我因故避居於哈佛大學。一天，我接到《投資者商務日報》（Investor’s Business Daily，IBD）駐華盛頓記者站站長Brian Mitchell先生打來的電話，說他想寫一篇關於“白璧德與中國”的報道，要我談談如何看待白璧德對中國的影響。白璧德這個名字，對今天的中國人來說，尤其對中國的投資者而言，相對陌生。但是，對上個世紀初的中國思想文化界來說，可以說是大名鼎鼎。歐文•白璧德（Irving Babbitt，1865─1933），在哈佛大學終身任教，是那個時代美國正統保守主義的思想領袖和主要代言人。白璧德與中國有著一份不解的淵源。上個世紀二、三十年的中國思想文化界，基本上被兩位美國思想家在中國的代理人所瓜分，而且兩派之間發生了一場持續的論戰。一邊是哥倫比亞大學的杜威在中國的代理人胡適與新文化派，一邊是哈佛大學的白璧德在中國的代理人梅光迪、吳宓與學衡派。學衡派信奉白璧德，如同胡適的新文化派之膜拜杜威。白璧德的一些中國弟子們在中國結成了著名的學衡派。他們主辦的《學衡》雜志把白璧德的思想傳入中國。梅光迪、吳宓、林語堂、樑實秋都曾受教於白璧德門下，並深受其影響。據《吳宓日記》記載，當時正在哈佛大學遊學的陳寅恪，曾由吳宓引見，與白璧德有過交流。而陳寅恪的思想帶有明顯的保守主義特征，這使得白璧德的文化保守主義也在中國現代思想脈絡中留下了抹之不去的印痕。
我有一個愛好，開車從不聽任何電台，而是邊開車邊聽英語語音書。這樣，開車也是閱讀的繼續，而且不消費視力。在我聽完了美裔英籍投資大師坦普頓爵士（亦稱鄧普頓，Sir John Tempelton，1912-2008）的《內在財富的法則：精神與物質富足的原理》（
The Laws of Inner Wealth: Principles for Spiritual and Material Abundance）之後，對上述問題的答案就自己浮現出來了。作為在投資界聲名卓著的過來人，坦普頓認為，一個人靠投資取得的財富，是由這個人的內在財富決定的。如果一個人沒有內在財富，就算靠運氣獲得意外之財，也難以守住。想要積累外在的財富，必須先積累內在的財富；要致力於獲得外在的財富，必須先獲得內在的財富。獲得內在的財富是有章法（laws）可循的。獲得內在財富的方法，就是獲得外在財富的方法。真正的投資者就像一個拾金者，他拾撿的是他內在的財富。他內在的財富越多，他拾到的外在財富就越多。
坦普頓爵士還使用了一個特別的概念：精神紅利（spiritual dividends）。精神紅利來自一個人的精神財富。對投資者而言，精神紅利有兩種類型。一種是內在的紅利，是對靈魂的回報（dividends in the soul），這種紅利表現為你熱愛你所從事的獲得內在財富的工作；還表現為，你因為具有內在的財富而獲得心靈上的安寧（peace of mind）。而精神紅利的外在表現是獎勵與你的內在精神財富相匹配的外在的物質財富。

If I had to live my life without you near me The days would all be empty The nights would seem so long With you I see forever oh, so clearly I might have been in love before But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young and we both know They’ll take us where we want to go Hold me now, touch me now I don’t want to live without you.
Chorus 1 Nothing’s gonna change my love for you You oughta know by now how much I love you One thing you can be sure of I’ll never ask for more than your love.
Chorus 2 Nothing’s gonna change my love for you You ought to know by now how much I love you The world may change my whole life through but nothing’s gonna change my love for you.
If the road ahead is not so easy Our love will lead the way for us like a guiding star I’ll be there for you if you should need me You don’t have to change a thing I love you just the way you are.
So come with me and share this view I’ll help you see forever too Hold me now, touch me now I don’t want to live without you.

If you leave me now, You’ll take away the biggest part of me. Ooh…. no baby please don’t go.
And if you leave me now, You’ll take away the very heart of me. Ooh…. no baby please don’t go.
A love like ours is love, That’s hard to find How could we let it slip away.
We’ve come too far to leave it all behind How could we end it all this way.
When tomorrow comes then will both regret the things we said to-day
Ooh girl I’ve got to have you by my side. Ooh no baby please don’t go. Sweet mama just got to have your love inside me.

Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand? Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming? Is this burning an eternal flame?
I believe it’s meant to be, darling I watch when you are sleeping, you belong to me Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming Or is this burning an eternal flame?
Say my name, sun shines through the rain A whole life so lonely, and then you come and ease the pain I don’t want to lose this feeling
[break]
Say my name, sun shines through the rain A whole life so lonely, and then you come and ease the pain I don’t want to lose this feeling
Close your eyes and give me your hand Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand? Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming Or is this burning an eternal flame?
[break]
Is this burning an eternal flame?
An eternal flame?
(Close your eyes and give me your hand Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand? Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming Or is this burning an eternal flame?)
