先別急. 待我跟你說個故事

戰國時代，齊國有個叫馮諼的人，在孟嘗君門下當食客。

後來，馮諼自願替孟嘗君的封地，薛地，去收債。馮諼假託孟嘗君的名義，把債款賞給薛地百姓，並燒掉債券契約，薛地百姓都很感激孟嘗君的德政。馮諼回到齊國後向孟嘗君報告，用他的名義，燒債券買仁義的經過。孟嘗君聽後，很不高興。

一年後，齊王中了離間計，將孟嘗君解除官職，回到薛地居住。還未到達薛地，當地百姓就扶老攜幼，在路旁迎接孟嘗君。孟嘗君回頭對馮諼說：「先生替我買的‘義’，我今天才見到。」

馮諼說：「聰明的兔子有三個藏身的洞窟，才能得以免死。現在您只有一個洞窟，還不能高枕無憂，臣願替您再鑿兩窟。」孟嘗君就給他五十輛車，黃金五百斤去遊說魏國。他對梁惠王說：「齊王放逐大臣孟嘗君，諸侯誰先請到他，誰就能富國強兵。」

於是，梁惠王空出相位，讓原來的相國做上將軍，並派遣使節，帶着千斤黃金，百輛馬車去聘請孟嘗君。馮諼先趕回薛地對孟嘗君說：「黃金千斤是很貴重的聘禮，百輛馬車是很隆重的禮節，齊國應該聽說了。」梁惠王的使節往返了三次，孟嘗君都堅決推辭不去。

齊王聽到消息后，君臣驚恐，就派遣太傅帶着千斤黃金，兩輛有四匹馬拉駛的華麗馬車，及寶劍一把，並附書信一封向孟嘗君道歉說：「都是寡人的行為不善，遭受祖先降下災禍，才會聽信讒言，得罪先生。寡人不足以輔佐，願先生顧念先王宗廟，回國掌理政務。」

馮諼勸孟嘗君說：「希望您要求將先王傳下的祭器，放在薛地，並建宗廟確保薛地安全。」宗廟蓋好，馮諼回報孟嘗君說：「三窟已完成，您可以高枕無憂了。」孟嘗君為相數十年，沒有絲毫禍患，都是靠馮諼的謀划。

因為發生在孟嘗君身上的事未必會發生在你身上，所以這裡頭的道理，我不便明說，要請您自己想想

我也很喜歡美國詩人Robert Frost的The Road Not Taken

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 5

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, 10

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. 15

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
