精彩书摘

　　Frederick S. Parsons, an income tax consultant, had been disputingand wrangling for an hour with a goverment tax inspector. An item ofnine thousand dollars was at stake. Mr. Parsons claimed that this ninethousand dollars was in reality a bad debt, that it would never becollected, that it ought not to be taxed. “Bad debt, my eye ！” retorted theinspector. “It must be taxed.” “This inspector was cold, arrogant and stubborn,” Mr. Parsons said ashe told the story to the class. “Reason was wasted and so were facts...The longer we argued, the more stubborn he became. So I decided toavoid argument, change the subject, and give him appreciation. “I said, I suppose this is a very petty matter in comparison with thereally important and difficult decisions youre required to make. Ivemade a study of taxation myself. But Ive had to get my knowledge frombooks. You are getting yours from the firing line of experience. Isometime wish I had a job like yours. It would teach me a lot. I meantevery word I said. “Well.” The inspector straightened up in his chair, leaned back, andtalked for a long time about his work, telling me of the clever frauds hehad uncovered. His tone gradually became friendly, and presently he wastelling me about his children. As he left, he advised me that he wouldconsider my problem further and give me his decision in a few days. “He called at my office three days later and informed me that he haddecided to leave the tax return exactly as it was filed.” This tax inspector was demonstrating one of the most common ofhuman frailties. He wanted a feeling of importance; and as long as Mr.Parsons argued with him, he got his feeling of importance by loudlyasserting his authority. But as soon as his importance was admitted andthe argument stopped and he was permitted to expand his ego, hebecame a sympathetic and kindly human being. Buddha said: “Hatred is never ended by hatred but by love,” and amisunderstanding is never ended by an argument but by tact, diplomacy,conciliation and a sympathetic desire to see the other persons viewpoint. Lincoln once reprimanded a young army officer for indulging in aviolent controversy with an associate. “No man who is resolved to makethe most of himself,” said Lincoln, “can spare time for personalcontention.
