61．卓越之处求卓越_智慧书（中英双语）

<h1>61．卓越之处求卓越</h1>

卓越之处求卓越。在各种优秀的特质中，这是最为珍稀的。伟人必然有其优异之处，平庸之人从来不能赢得人们的喝彩。在不平凡的岗位上出类拔萃，可使你别于俗世的庸才，而进入精英的行列。在微贱的岗位上就算做得出色，也是一件很微不足道的事情——越是容易成功，便越算不得荣耀。在崇高的事业上追求卓越可使你具有王者气质，将使众人赞叹不已，并赢得好感。

<h1>61．To excel in what is excellent</h1>

To excel in what is excellent. It is a great rarity among excellences. You cannot have a great man without something preeminent. Mediocrities never win apuse. Eminence in some distinguished post distinguishes one from the vulgar mob and ranks us with the elect. To be distinguished in a small post is to be great in little: the morefort, the less glory. The highest eminence in great affairs has the royal characteristic of exciting admiration and winning goodwill.
