A statesman attended a meeting of a Chamber of Commerce. When he rose to speak, an objection was raised on the grounds that he had nothing to do with commerce.
"Mr. Chairman," an aged member said, rising to his feet, "I believe the objection is not valid. The gentleman's connection with commerce is close and intimate. He is a commodity."
一位政客出席了一场商会会议。当他起身准备发言时，有人提出反对，理由是他与商业毫无关系。
"主席先生，"一位年长的成员站起来说道，"我认为这个反对理由不成立。这位先生与商业的联系是紧密而直接的。他本身就是一件商品。"
