裕康,抱歉你的一封信我至今都還沒有回,原本想赫然出現眼前或打通電話嚇你一下,但都空有念頭而無行動,希望你別介意.潛台至今仍在潛水階段,幾乎完全沒有時間能與任何人連絡,但總有一天我會出現的.

出處如下,是在一篇書評中看到.

"History cannot be expected to solve the core aXalytical puzzles of political or economic theory. But it has its hour when the long-expected solutions of social and political science fail to materialize. History is the tool of skeptics. It helps us to ask better questions. More precisely, it can help us avoid repeating some questions again and again, running in circles unproductively."

---Istvan Hont, Jealousy of Trade, Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 2005, p. 156.
