“[T]here is beyond question a body of very important but unorganized knowledge which cannot possibly be called scientific in the sense of knowledge of general rules: the knowledge of particular circumstances and place. It is with respect to this that practically every individual has some advantage over all others in that he possesses unique information of which beneficial use might be made, but of which use can be made only if the decisions depending on it are left to him or are made with his active cooperation.”
“毫无疑问，存在一种非常重要但无组织的知识，从知识的一般规则来看，它们绝对称不上科学。这就是关于特定环境和场合的知识。对于这种知识，几乎每个个人都拥有一些相较于其他所有人的优势，即他知道关于可以如何派上有益用场的独一无二的信息，但这种用场只有在取决于它的决定由他来做出，或需要他的积极合作才能做出时才能派上。”
