　　Locked in the Cabinet is a close-up view of the way things

work, and often don't work, at the highest levels of

government--and a uniquely personal account by the man whose ideas

inspired and animated much of the Clinton campaign of 1992 and who

became the cabinet officer in charge of helping ordinary Americans

get better jobs. Robert B. Reich, writer, teacher, social

critic--and a friend of the Clintons since they were all in their

twenties--came to be known as the "conscience of the Clinton

administration and one of the most successful Labor Secretaries in

history. Here is his sometimes hilarious, sometimes poignant

chronicle of trying to put ideas and ideals into practice.

With wit, passion, and dead-aim honesty, Reich writes of those in

Washington who possess hard heads and soft hearts, and those with

exactly the opposite attributes. He introduces us to the career

bureaucrats who make Washington run and the politicians who, on

occasion, make it stop; to business tycoons and labor leaders who

clash by day and party together by night; to a president who wants

to change America and his opponents (on both the left and the

right) who want to keep it as it is or return it to where it used

to be. Reich guides us to the pinnacles of power and pretension, as

bills are passed or stalled, reputations built or destroyed,

secrets leaked, numbers fudged, egos bruised, news stories spun,

hypocrisies exposed, and good intentions occasionally derailed. And

to the places across America where those who are the objects of

this drama are simply trying to get by--assembly lines, sweatshops,

union halls, the main streets of small towns and the tough streets

of central cities.

Locked in the Cabinet is an intimate odyssey involving a

memorable cast--a friend who is elected President of the United

States, only to discover the limits of power; Alan Greenspan, who

is the most powerful man in America; and Newt Gingrich, who tries

to be. Plus a host of others: White House staffers and cabinet

members who can't find "the loop ; political consultant Dick

Morris, who becomes "the loop ; baseball players and owners who

can't agree on how to divide up $2 billion a year; a union leader

who accuses Reich of not knowing what a screwdriver looks like; a

heretofore invisible civil servant deep in the Labor Department

whose brainchild becomes the law of the land; and a wondrous

collection of senators, foreign ministers, cabinet officers, and

television celebrities. And it is also an odyssey for Reich's wife

and two young sons, who learn to tolerate their own cabinet member

but not to abide Washington.

Here is Reich--determined to work for a more just society,

laboring in a capital obsessed with exorcising the deficit and

keeping Wall Street happy--learning that Washington is not only

altogether different from the world of ordinary citizens but

ultimately, and more importantly, exactly like it: a world in which

Murphy's Law reigns alongside the powerful and the privileged, but

where hope amazingly persists. There are triumphs here to fill a

lifetime, and frustrations to fill two more. Never has this world

been revealed with such richness of evidence, humor, and

warmhearted candor.

未有知而不行者。知而不行，只是未知。

.......

有如知痛，必已自痛了，方知痛。知寒，必已自寒了。知饥，必已自饥了。知行如何分得开？

今人却就将知性分作两件去做，以为必先知了，然后能行。故遂终身不行，亦遂终身不知。

日间功夫觉纷扰，则静坐。觉懒看书，则且看书。是亦因病而药。

立志用功，如树使然。方其根芽，犹未有干；及其有干，尚未有枝。枝而后叶，叶而后花、实。初种根时，只管栽培灌溉，勿作枝想，勿作叶想，勿作花想，勿作实想，悬想何益？但不忘栽培之功，怕没有枝叶花实？

问：“静时亦觉意思好，才遇事便不同，如何？”

先曰：“是徒如静养，而不用克己功夫也。如此，临事便倾倒，人须在事上磨，方立得住，方能‘静亦定，动亦静’。

只要去人欲，存天理，方是功夫。静时念念去人欲、存天理，动时念念去人欲、存天理，不管宁静不宁静。若靠那宁静，不惟渐有喜静厌动之弊，中间许多病痛，只有潜伏在，终不能绝去，遇事依旧滋长。以循理为主，何尝不宁静？以宁静为主，未必能循理。

‘惟一’是‘惟精’主义，‘惟精’是’惟一’功夫，非‘惟一’之外复有‘惟一’也。

然非加春簸筛拣‘惟精’之工，则不能纯然洁白也。

博学、审问、慎思、明辨、笃行者，皆所以为‘惟精’而求‘惟一’也

学者一念为善之志。如树之种，但勿助勿忘，只管培植将去，自然日夜滋长，生气日完，枝叶日茂。树初生时，便抽繁枝，亦须刊落，然后根干能大。初学时亦然。故立志贵专一。

心外无理，心外无事。
