人生十二法则的名人名言哲理格言警句语录

If you don't say what you think then you kill your unborn self.

只有通过观察自己的行为，你才能发现自己真正相信什么（而不是你认为自己相信什么）。在此之前，你根本不知道自己相信什么。你太复杂了，无法理解自己。

You can only find out what you actually believe (rather than what you think you believe) by watching how you act. You simply don’t know what you believe, before that. You are too complex to understand yourself.

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

如果你不能理解某人为什么要做某事，那么看看他们行为的后果，不管他们可能是什么，然后从他们的后果中推断出动机。

If you can't understand why someone is doing something, look at the consequences of their actions, whatever they might be, and then infer the motivations from their consequences.

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

当你有话要说时，沉默就是谎言。

When you have something to say, silence is a lie.

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

你要为你做的每一件血腥的事和你没有做的每一件事付出代价。你不能选择不付出代价。你要选择你要服用哪种毒药。仅此而已。

You're going to pay a price for every bloody thing you do and everything you don't do. You don't get to choose to not pay a price. You get to choose which poison you're going to take. That's it.

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

我不认为你对自己的行善能力有任何洞察，除非你对自己的邪恶能力有一些成熟的洞察。

I don't think that you have any insight whatsoever into your capacity for good until you have some well-developed insight into your capacity for evil.

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

Perhaps you are overvaluing what you don’t have and undervaluing what you do.

也许你高估了你所没有的，低估了你所做的。

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

Intolerance of others’ views (no matter how ignorant or incoherent they may be) is not simply wrong； in a world where there is no right or wrong， it is worse: it is a sign you are embarrassingly unsophisticated or， possibly， dangerous.

不容忍他人的观点（无论他们多么无知或不连贯）不仅仅是错误的；在一个没有对错之分的世界里，情况更糟：这是一个你令人尴尬地不成熟或可能是危险的迹象。

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

Women select men. That makes them nature， because nature is what selects. And you can say "Well it's only symbolic that women are nature"， it's like no， it's not just symbolic. The woman is the gatekeeper to reproductive success. And you can't get more like nature than that， in fact it's the very definition of nature.

女人选择男人。这使他们成为自然，因为自然就是选择。你可以说女人是自然，这只是象征性的，这就像不，这不仅仅是象征性的。女人是生殖成功的守门员。你不可能比这更像自然，事实上这就是自然的定义。

乔丹·彼得森 / 《人生十二法则》

It took untold generations to get you where you are. A little gratitude might be in order. If you're going to insist on bending the world to your way， you better have your reasons.

经过无数代人的努力，你才达到了现在的水平。也许需要一点感激之情。如果你要坚持让世界按你的方式弯曲，你最好有自己的理由。
