 试图指导私人如何使用他们的资本的政治家，不仅会使自己背负起极不必要的责任，还会行使一种权力，它不能被信任交给任何单个个体，甚至不能被信任交给任何理事会或议会，而且这种权力在愚蠢和自负到足以自认为有资格行使它的人手中最为危险。

There's a real correlation between a society that tells people that they can do anything, and the existence of low self-esteem. So that's another way in which something quite positive can have a nasty kickback. There is another reason why we might be feeling more anxious --about our careers, about our status in the world today, than ever before. And it's, again, linked to something nice. And that nice thing is called meritocracy.
