我一直觉得奇怪……我们钦佩的那些品质,如善良、慷慨、开放、诚实、理解和同情,在我们的体系中往往是失败的伴随物。而我们厌恶的那些特质,如精明、贪婪、占有欲、卑鄙、自负和自私,却是成功的特质。虽然人们钦佩前者的品质,但他们却喜欢后者的产物。
It has always seemed strange to me... 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. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second.
每个项目都是发现我们生活方式新事物的机会。
