我们钦佩的人的品质,如善良、慷慨、开放、诚实、理解和同情,在我们的系统中是失败的伴随物。而我们厌恶的那些特质,如精明、贪婪、占有欲、卑鄙、自我中心和自私,却是成功的特质。
The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling, are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest, are the traits of success.
"In every character, there is a part of the actor's own life, a reflection of their own experiences."
面临大事与难事,可看出一个人的责任;处顺境逆境,可看出一个人的胸襟气度;遇喜事怒事,看一个人的涵养;与同辈相处,可看一个人的见识。
倘若一个人对一朵花情有独钟,而那花在浩瀚的星河中,是独一无二的,那么,他只要仰望繁星点点,就心满意足了。
