所在段落

The Story of Philosophy《哲学的故事》第1章Plato第7节VI. The Political Solution第2段第5句：

Is this aristocracy? Well, we need not be afraid of the word, if the reality is good which it betoken: words are wise men's counters, without value of their own; they are the money only of fools and politicians. We want to be ruled by the best, which is what aristocracy means; have we not, Carlyle-like, yearned and prayed to be ruled by the best? But we have come to think of aristocracies as hereditary; let it be carefully noted that this Platonic aristocracy is not of that kind; one would rather call it a democratic aristocracy. For the people , instead of blindly electing the lesser of two evils presented to them as candidates by nominating cliques, will here be themselves, every one of them, the candidates; and will receive an equal chance of educational election to public office. There is no caste here; no inheritance of position or privilege; no stoppage of talent impecuniously born; the son of a ruler begins on the same level, and receives the same treatment and opportunity, as the son of a bootblack; if the ruler's son is a dolt he falls at the first shearing; if the bootblack's son is a man of ability the way is clear for him to become a guardian of the state(423). Career will be open to talent wherever it is born. This is a democracy of the schools — a hundredfold more honest and more effective than a democracy of the polls.
浙江大学译本：因为，不同于面对利益集团推举的候选人而盲目地两害相权取其轻，人民自己将成为候选人，并且个个都是如此，他们公平地接受教育和选拔，以获得公共职位。
