我们可以从书店中感受到这些问题所造成的后果,当你像我一样到大型书店里的,自我帮助书籍类。如果你分析现在出版的这些自我帮助类书籍,它们基本上分成两种,第一种告诉你“你做得到!你能成功!没有不可能!”另外一种则教导你如何处理,我们婉转地称呼为“缺乏自信”,或是直接了当地称为“自我感觉极差”。
The consequences of this problem make themselves felt in bookshops. When you go to a large bookshop and look at the self-help sections, as I sometimes do -- if you analyze self-help book sproduced in the world today, there are basically two kinds. The first kind tells you, "You can do it! You can make it! Anything's possible!" The other kind tells you how to cope with what we politely call "low self-esteem," or impolitely call, "feeling very bad about yourself."

我们完全手足无措地踏上生命的后半征程。普通大学把年轻人引入知识世界,什么学校能让四十几岁人为未来生活做好准备?没有这种学校,我们完全无备地踏入后半生;而更糟的是,我们假定现实和理想会一如既往地效忠于我们。但实际上,我们不能依照生命之晨,来度过生命之午后,因为晨时的伟大会成为傍晚时的琐碎,而晨时的真理会在傍晚变为谎言。
