塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯:节俭·摘录 69
塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《节俭》· Thrift · 投资
Now it is the business of man to understand the laws of health, and to provide against their consequences,--as, for instance, in the matter of sickness, accident, and premature death. We cannot escape the consequences of transgression of the natural laws, though we may have meant well. We must have done well. The Creator does not alter His laws to accommodate them to our ignorance. He has furnished us with intelligence, so that we may understand them and act upon them: otherwise we must suffer the consequences in inevitable pain and sorrow.

白话
人应该了解健康法则,并预防疾病、事故和早逝的后果。即使我们本意良好,违反自然法则也逃不掉惩罚。造物主不会为迁就我们的无知而改变法则,但他给了我们智慧去理解并遵守。否则,我们只能承受痛苦和悲伤。所以,别把健康当儿戏,要主动学习科学知识,养成好习惯,做好保险和储蓄等预防措施。
