企业家杂志发刊词

原文：I do not choose to be a common person.
It is my right to be uncommon—if I can.
I seek opportunity—not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen,
humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.
I want to take the calculated risk,
to dream and to build,
to fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole;
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence;
the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia.
I will not trade my freedom for beneficence
nor my dignity for a handout.
I will never cower before any master
nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid;
to think and act for myself;
to enjoy the benefit of my creations;
and to face the world boldly
and say:
"This, with God's help, I have done."
—Entrepreneur's Credo of the American
翻译
我是不会选择做一个普通人的。如果我能够做到的话，我有权成为一位不寻常的人。我寻找机会，但我不寻求安稳，我不希望在国家的照顾下成为一名有保障的国民，那将被人瞧不起而使我感到痛苦不堪。
我要做有意义的冒险。我要梦想，我要创造，我要失败，我也要成功。
我拒绝用刺激来换取施舍；我宁愿向生活挑战，而不愿过有保证的生活；宁愿要达到目的时的激动，而不愿要乌托邦式毫无生气的平静。
我不会拿我的自由与慈善作交易，也不会拿我的尊严去与发给乞丐的食物作交易。我决不会在任何一位大师面前发抖，也不会为任何恐吓所屈服。
我的天性是挺胸直立，骄傲而无所畏惧。我勇敢地面对这个世界，自豪地说：在上帝的帮助下，我已经做到了。
