历史的终结将是一个非常悲伤的时刻。为了纯粹抽象的目标而愿意冒生命危险的斗争,全球意识形态斗争所唤起的勇气、想象力、理想主义,将被经济计算、无休止的技术问题解决、环境问题和复杂消费者需求的满足所取代。
The end of history will be a very sad time. The struggle for recognition, the willingness to risk one's life for a purely abstract goal, the worldwide ideological struggle that called forth daring, courage, imagination, and idealism, will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.
你唯一应该努力超越的人就是昨天的自己。
对自己抱有兴趣的人使我们感兴趣。
痛苦是上帝不会让它在太脆弱的枝干上成熟的果实。
和谐是宇宙的本质。
I'm a hopeless romantic and I think that's what makes my heart beat.
出自先秦《荀子·哀公》。鸟被逼得走投无路之时就会用嘴啄人,兽到困窘之时就会用爪抓人,人到穷困潦倒之时就会设计骗人。以鸟兽困窘之时的行为为喻,说明人到穷困潦倒之时便会放弃道德操守的原因。
