虽然我们时常显示是为了健康,但我不这么认为,我认为是为了逃避人群的蚁丘,逃避人们的疯狂竞争,我们的戏剧化,这便是为什么我们如此喜欢看海、观赏冰山,从外太空观赏地球等等,我们希望重新和那些“非人类”的事物有所连接,那对我们来说很重要。
Not for the sake of our health, though it's often presented that way, but because it's an escape from the human anthill. It's an escape from our own competition, and our own dramas. And that's why ween joy looking at glaciers and oceans, and contemplating the Earth from outside its perimeters, etc. We like to feel in contact with something that is non-human, and that is so deeply important to us.
读书人要为自己的一生爱惜名誉,不应为这一生出卖名誉。治理诗书,崇尚气节,谨慎取予,严肃仪表,这就是爱惜名誉。相互竞争标榜,攀附权贵,出尽风头,不分是非,这就是出卖名誉。爱惜名誉的人清静无为,出卖名誉的人急躁而拙劣。所以读书人要管理钱财正当用途,而不是浪费金钱。救济乡亲,聘请老师教学,赈济荒年歉收,协助善行,这些是运用钱财。而花钱布置庭园,唱歌跳舞,大宴宾客,积聚宝物等,这些都是浪费金钱。善用金钱的人虽花钱但收获丰盈,伤财的人积聚多但终将倾覆。
The teacher who is indeed wise does not bid you to enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind.
我活得越久,就越倾向于相信地球被其他星球用作疯人院。
You can’t do today’s job with yesterday’s methods and be in business tomorrow.
大多数人不是为了理解而听,而是为了回答而听。
我们所看到或似乎看到的一切,都只是梦中之梦。
