没有根本的气节,就好像醉汉喝醉酒打人,酒醉时很勇敢,酒醒后勇气全消,没有一点气力。没有以学问为根本的见识,就好像厨师在炉灶前面,面前光亮而背后黑暗。

In a way, I've got some bad news, particularly to anybody who's come to Oxford from abroad. There's a real problem with snobbery, because sometimes people from outside the U.K. imagine that snobbery is a distinctively U.K. phenomenon, fixated on country houses and titles. The bad news is that's not true. Snobbery is a global phenomenon; we area global organization, this is a global phenomenon. What is a snob? A snob is anybody who takes a small part of you, and uses that to come to a complete vision of who you are. That is snobbery.
