Humanity Needs Dreamers
Humanity certainly needs practical men, who get the most out of their work, and, without forgetting the general good, safeguard their own interests. But humanity also needs dreamers, for whom the disinterested development of an enterprise is so captivating that it becomes impossible for them to devote their care to their own material profit.
Without the slightest doubt, these dreamers do not deserve wealth, because they do not desire it. Even so, a well-organized society should assure to such workers the efficient means of accomplishing their task, in a life freed from material care and freely consecrated to research.

人類需要夢想家
人類肯定需要一些講求實際的人，他們會從付出的勞動中索取最大的回報，他們會在不忘記別人利益的同時維護自身的利益。可是，人類也同樣需要夢想家，對這些人來說，實現一個無私的計畫，會是多麼的具有吸引力，以致他們不可能去關心自身的利益。
毫無疑問，這些夢想家不配擁有財富，因為他們對財富沒有慾望。然而，即使如此，一個組織良好的社會應該設法保證這些人有足夠的條件完成工作，保證他們能擺脫為生活奔波而將全部精力奉獻於研究工作。
