这个世界用许多方法告诉我们,我们无所不能,我们不再受限于阶级,而是只要靠着努力就能攀上我们想到的高度。这是个美丽的理想,出于一种生而平等的精神,我们基本上是平等的,没有任何明显的阶级存在。这造成了一个严重的问题,这个问题是嫉妒。
We're told, from many sources, that any onecan achieve anything. We've done away with the caste system, we are now in a system where anyone can rise to any position they please. And it's a beautiful idea. Along with that is a kind of spirit of equality; we're all basically equal. There are no strictly defined hierarchies. There is one really big problem with this, and that problem is envy.
Success is doing what you want to do, when you want, where you want, with whom you want, as much as you want.
如果你相信自己,一切皆有可能。
Envy is a really stupid sin because it’s the only one you could never possibly have any fun at. There’s a lot of pain and no fun. Why would you want to get on that trolley?
